Scabies

After treatment for scabies, it is common for the rash to continue to itch for several weeks, even though the mites are eliminated. This lingering itch can be due to an allergic reaction to the dead mites and their waste. Generally, the rash may also persist for a similar duration, but it should gradually improve over time. If the rash or itching continues beyond a few weeks, it’s advisable to consult a healthcare provider.

Calamansi, a citrus fruit, has some antibacterial and antifungal properties, but there is no scientific evidence to support its effectiveness as a treatment for scabies. Scabies is caused by a mite infestation, and effective treatments typically involve prescribed topical medications or oral medications specifically designed to eliminate the mites. While calamansi may offer some skin benefits, it should not be relied upon as a primary treatment for scabies. Always consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment options.

An "itch you can't scratch" metaphorically refers to an unresolved feeling or desire that is difficult to satisfy or alleviate. It often describes a nagging sensation of discomfort or restlessness, whether emotional, mental, or physical. This expression can signify longing for something unattainable or an ongoing frustration that persists despite efforts to address it.

To alleviate the sting and itch from insect bites, you can apply a cold compress or ice pack to reduce swelling and numb the area. Over-the-counter antihistamines like diphenhydramine can help relieve itching, while hydrocortisone cream can reduce inflammation. Additionally, natural remedies such as aloe vera or baking soda paste can provide soothing relief. Always ensure the area is clean to prevent infection.

There is no direct scientific evidence linking Diet Coke consumption to facial itching. However, some individuals may have sensitivities or allergies to certain ingredients in Diet Coke, such as artificial sweeteners or preservatives, which could potentially trigger allergic reactions like itching. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and to determine any potential dietary triggers for facial itching.

Ah, the classic old wives' tale! When the tip of your nose itches, it means someone is talking about you behind your back. So, either you're the talk of the town or your nose just needs a good scratch. Take your pick!

Scabies mites cannot live long outside their human host, typically surviving only 48 to 72 hours without contact with skin. They do not infest wood or plastic, as these surfaces do not provide the warmth and moisture needed for the mites to thrive. However, they may linger on clothing or bedding for a short period, which can lead to transmission if these items come into contact with skin. Therefore, while scabies cannot inhabit wood or plastic, it’s important to wash and clean items that may have come into contact with an infested person.

The hazard sign for chemicals that can cause skin itching is the "Skin Irritant" symbol. It typically features an image of a hand within a stop sign shape, indicating potential skin irritation upon contact with the substance.

Teeth do not have nerves in them like skin does, so they cannot itch as skin can. However, if you experience discomfort or unusual sensations in your teeth, it may be a sign of dental issues that should be checked by a dentist.

Itch is detected by specialized nerve endings called pruriceptors, while pain is detected by nociceptors. Both types of sensory receptors are found in the skin and are responsible for detecting and transmitting signals related to these sensations to the brain.

An itch is a very slight form of pain from your nerves. There is usually something touching you and your body feels threatened by the contact, and so you itch to remove it from your skin.

In bites and stings it's because the nerves are stimulated by the poison/acid/alkali released into the bite.

Sometimes you may feel a 'Phantom' or travelling itch, when you can't quite tell where you need to itch. This is caused by random stimulation of the nerve, the cause of which is unknown

Itching ears can be caused by dry skin, allergies, infections, or earwax buildup. To relieve itching, you can use over-the-counter ear drops, warm olive oil, or consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. Avoid inserting objects into your ears as this can worsen the condition.

Yes, easy bruising can be caused by low iron levels in the blood. Iron plays a crucial role in the production of red blood cells, and a deficiency can lead to anemia, which can result in easy bruising. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.

You scratch an itch!

An itch itches.

You scratch an itch to remove the pain.

Absolutely. It can be very painful and irritating. It can itch and burn while you urinate but it can also itch when you are not urinating. The itching can be extremely uncomfortable and seem almost unbearable and is generally fairly specific to the urethral opening (where you pee from). However, if you're at risk for sexually transmissible infections, and if you are experiencing painful urination and itching, ask your health care provider if you were screened for trichomoniasis at the time of your visit, and whether you had a urine culture done. If not, and if your symptoms don't improve within 48 hours of the start of treatment, see your health care provider for a follow up exam and to determine if additional testing is needed.

Although the holes are very small, jeans are actually porous. Small particles of feces are absorbed into your underwear and pants, and when you scratch that area, the particles are often transferred onto your fingers. Everything that you smell is actually a series of small pieces of what you're smelling entering your nostrils.

tengo una picazon...or...me pica[insert part]...but that sounds rude..

it means u have some kind of bug in your hair it DOES NOT mean its growing WHATSO EVER

It could just mean your scalp is either oily, dry, itchy, or you have lice. No, it doesn't mean your hair is growing (even though it is)

Epsom salts are typically used in baths to help soothe sore muscles and relax the body. They may also help with itching caused by conditions like eczema or insect bites by reducing inflammation and irritation. However, it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using Epsom salts for skin conditions to ensure it is safe and effective for your specific situation.

You may have athletes foot. This is a fungus that grows on the foot and in between the toes. It is very itchy and hard to get rid of.

If you have something wrong with you it is important that you go and see a qualified medical practitioner (a Doctor) about it - the internet is not a substitute for a qualified diagnosis or indeed a source of proper treatment recommendation.

Berfore you go home you must stop and buy a vinyl wrap for your mattress, bleach, borax soap and lots of trash bags. Wrap your mattress change your sheets. Wraps your pillow in trash bag and tape up to seal. Remove all bedspreads and blankets you will need to wash everything you sleep with everyday so limit yourself. Every time you use a towel put it in the plastic bag for washing. Only wear you clothes one and then wash. I used only white color clothing and towels so I could use bleach on them too. Dermisil worked wonders for me I bought the family pack for scabies online and I used the whole thing on just myself. I also used Permith once. Im using Dermisil without stopping treatment for 3 weeks now. I did not wrap my mattress or pillow until 4 days ago..I can already see a difference. So don't be fooled if you have scabies its in you bedding..I was fooled and have suffered longer due to it. Sulfersoap work great to you can find that at a health food store in the acne section, it kills them. I recommend the Dermisil it made me feel clean and it works you get a whole kit bath treatment for soaking, sulfur soap, sulfur lotion and a bug sray..It is pricy through. Good luck..

Grass has a serrated edge on its blade and makes tiny cuts on your skin. Many of these gives the itching sensation. If you have ever run through a cornfield without a shirt on, you are very familiar with this fact. while the serated edge part in the former answer is true the main reason for the itching sensation is the litle "hairs" on the grass. look closly with a magnefying glass on the underside of a blade of grass, it is covered with tiny hairs, at the tip of each is a drop of fluid (too small for the naked eye to see) witch contains an irritating substance the grass secreats for protection from herbivores. the serated edge is also meant for the same purpose. zaf.
