Reduced moisture in the skin can cause dry and itchy skin, peeling, cracking, and even bleeding. The causes can vary, ranging from the use of soap that is not suitable, clothing materials that can make itching, do not routinely use a moisturizer, up to too long in hot water. Normal and healthy skin is coated with a layer of fat, feels moist, and also supple. When experiencing dryness, the skin becomes more sensitive and susceptible to the appearance of rashes and damage.

There are several ways to deal with dry and itchy skin, including:

– Relieve itching with ice packs or ice water
If itching is getting annoying, you can cover dry and itchy skin with a wet bandage or with a cold cloth so that we don’t try to scratch the itchy skin.

– Careful in choosing bath soap products
Bath soaps that contain deodorants and deodorizers, generally contain ingredients that can remove moisture from the skin, causing dry and itchy skin. Therefore, you are advised to be careful in choosing soap products. Choose mild, non-perfumed bath soaps or labeled “hypoallergenic” or for sensitive skin. Because some people often experience dry and itchy skin when in contact with certain fragrances and dyes, which can be found in detergents, soap, and various skincare products. Also, don’t bathe too often and limit it to 10 to 15 minutes each time you take a shower. Try to use cold or warm water. Because the use of water that is too hot and too often bathing can erode the moisture that is on your skin.

– Avoid cigarettes
Not only affects the health of internal organs, but smoking can also cause dry and rough skin. This is because smoking can cause blood flow to the skin to be less smooth. Exposure to cigarette smoke can also aggravate the symptoms of eczema so that it is more prone to dry and itchy skin.
