Itchy Skin On Arms.

[Patsy33]

It's unbearable at times. I scratch so much, the skin gets damaged and sore. Sometimes bruised if it's top of arm but it's usually forearm. Can't seem to satisfy the itch! It's been going on for a few years on and off but worse last couple of months. Anyone else experience this?

Only had ordinary E45 at Tescos. Typical.

Lanacane cream is very good for the relief of irritating itches.

Thanks Tilly. Will look out for it.

I've found the more you scratch an itch, the longer you have it for. You need to break the cycle. Keeping the skin moisturised so it isn't dry will help but try Betnovate 1-4 diluation. I use a tiny bit on my eczema and it just clears up. It is a low low steroid. Could be what you need to just get shot of it.

Can I get it over the counter at chemist? Thanks.
