Alternative Cure for Itchy Skin
If you have already consulted a doctor and there are no serious problems with your skin, it can be concluded that you have excessively dry skin, which has become itchy. Dry skin is a result of the body lacking sufficient moisture to keep skin supple and lubricated. To begin with, you must spend time outdoors and get away from air conditioning and heaters, as these are the silent culprits in making your skin overly dry. You should also start following a daily routine of moisturization of the entire body, as this will be a permanent solution that will help in getting rid of the dryness as well as itchiness.
After a warm bath, rub a moisturizer into your skin. The best option for you would be one that is meant especially for dry skin. You can also use olive oil for this purpose, as it is therapeutic in healing dry skin too. Try to exfoliate your skin at least once a week. Make a scrub for this purpose using sugar crystals and olive oil and rub it in circular motions all over your body till the sugar melts. Afterwards, bathe with warm water and a mild soap. Apply a mashed overripe banana mixed with milk cream to especially itchy areas like knees, ankles and elbows. Add a gallon of whole milk to a tub of warm water, and soak for about 20 minutes. This will moisturize your skin very well.
