An itch is a part of your skin which is irritated and when you scratch it you relive that irritation for some time, but you don't cure it. It is more likely that you will be more itchy after. The best thing to do is ignore it and your body will make the irritation heal.

While scratching may temporarily ease the itch, in the long run scratching just makes it worse. In addition, scratching can lead to an endless cycle of itch--scratch--more itching.
