Itch goes hand in hand with eczema.
Its usually a cycle - inflammation with redness followed by flaky dry skin then scratch then the skin gets infected ....
Doctors always recommend medication at night to stop the night itchiness and recommend moisturiser in the day.
Medication and moisturiser cannot beat the occasional urge to scratch.
Mum said, its always easier to bear with Pain but when it comes to itch its impossible to control your hand to scratch.
To stop my toddler its really a tiring task.
Upon the advice of the chinese doctor, we found ourselves a tool to help espcially before sleep - bamboo.
This bamboo stick is older than me, my mum used to use it as a rack (with 3 other stick) whenever she steams on the wok.
Bamboo was recommended over finger as nails has bacteria in it and can cause abrasion.
So, whenever Chloe complains of itch, its always Bamboo.
Another place that we can get bamboo ware is from Daiso.
