It's embarrassing when it's hot
If it is biased towards itchy skin in the elderly, then the following information suggests you take a look:
Skin pruritus refers to a kind of skin disease that itches consciously without primary skin lesions, which is called "itching wind" and "wind itching" in Chinese medicine.
The causes of skin itching are: with the increase of age, the water content of subcutaneous tissue decreases, the elasticity decreases, and the subcutaneous fat glands are not secreted enough, which makes the skin dry and atrophy, exposed to wind, humidity, heat, insects invading the sun or mental stress, emotional excitement, warm clothes, mechanical stimulation, taking spicy, fish and shrimp, alcohol, coffee, strong tea and other hair products, and insufficient intake of manganese-containing food, which leads to itching all over the body.
Folk application of expelling wind and clearing heat, nourishing blood and moistening skin, removing dampness and killing insects has obvious curative effect on this disease.

If you feel urticaria, it is recommended to go to the Air Force General Hospital in Beijing or the Beijing Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine to register. Both hospitals have doctors who specialize in urticaria. But urticaria is a stubborn disease, especially for the elderly, and it is not well cured. Try to improve your immunity, and sometimes it will heal itself. Let me give you another piece of advice. My mother-in-law used to have urticaria, but she got better when she grew up, but her skin itched again. Later, I prescribed vitamin E milk from Beijing Hospital to wipe her whole body. Very comfortable and moist, and the price is very cheap. I bought a bottle from 6.8 yuan last time (1 bottle available 100ML). Although it can't cure the disease, it will alleviate the pain of itchy skin in the elderly. I hope I can help you.
