Itchy skin : A sudden eruption of red patches all over the skin.
Flaking of the skin ? The inflammation of the skin may be due to Dermatitis. It is the term used to signify inflammatory conditions of the skin, generally due to contact with some particular substance to which an individual may be sensitive like cosmetics, hair oil, hair dyes, bleaches, skin tonics, creams, lipsticks, nail polishes, perfumes etc. If the inflammation continues for a long time, it may be followed by thickening of the skin. To keep your skin smooth and healthy, it is essential to fight these disorders promptly. In case of Dermatitis, no treatment is effective until the offending agent is removed. If the skin is inflamed, apply moist warm compresses of potassium permanganate solution. To make this solution, dissolve one five gramme tablet of potassium permanganate in half liter of warm water. Moisten a compress and wring it out thoroughly, then apply to the irritated area. Repeat it two or three times a day.
Neuro-dermatitis : is a chronic type of inflammation accompanied with itching, which spreads very quickly over large areas of the body when the skin is dry and too sensitive. People who are nervous, tense and restless are more troubled with neurodermatitis. The generally affected areas on the body are the bend of the elbows, behind the knees. Constant scratching leaves deep scratch marks and causes thickening and furrowing of the skin. Applying rose water with ointment on the affected skin is excellent for this purpose. Consult your doctor for the appropriate treatment.
Seborrhoeic Dermatitis : is a chronic skin inflammation most frequently seen on the scalp. Usually, it starts from the skin behind the ear and immediately spreads on the whole scalp. From there, it may spread to the eyebrows, the fold of the nose, front of the chest and between the folds of the breasts. In this case, sometimes reddish scaling patches may appear under the breasts and in the body creases, especially around the groin. A salsum preparation is very useful in this condition. Consult your doctor before a treatment.
