Itching

[LolaBow]

Hi guys, Hope your all coping well. Just a quick ask...these last few days I have started itching really bad. .. does anyone know of any remedies to help ease it..

Hi,

I tried various creams which didn't help much until my GP prescribed Dermacool 5% Menthol. Best consult with your doctor first and try to get it on prescription as it's quite pricey. Hope you find some relief soon x

Thank you..Will try getting it from gp x

I don’t think there is a cure but I swear by Aloe Vera. But read the back of the bottle because sometimes they are not so pure, get a good one. Good luck

P.s it is a bugger when it itches.

Stay safe All
