Itchy skin and scalp
Pruritis is the medical term used to define the sensation of itching – an unpleasant sensation on the surface of our skin or scalp, leading to the need to scratch.
Itching may occur on a specific area of the body, or it can be more generalized and widespread. Itching is considered to be chronic when it lasts for over 6 weeks.
When we feel the need to scratch, it is important to identify the cause. Itching can be caused by many factors, which may be associated with other symptoms resulting from dermatological conditions such aseczema, psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis. The diagnosis then allows you to find the best solution to calm itching.
On the scalp, pollution, stress and unsuitable hair products can weaken your scalp, making it more sensitive and causing itching.
On the body, hard water, cold or heat can make your skin feel even drier, resulting in feelings of tightness and itching.
The daily use of appropriate cleansing and care products will soothe the sensitized area.
