Best creams for Sunburn Itching?

2010-01-06T22:28:00.000-08:00

My fiance got burnt pretty bad and now the burn isnt as bad...but the itch is horrible for him. Do you have any suggestions? I had him take Ibproferen (sp) and put Solarcaine on his back.....is there anything else or better? thanks!Best creams for Sunburn Itching?
I read the first answer--do not put deodorant on it!! that could be a disaster! there is a lotion called Cetaphil that is really mild and lasts all day. that is usually what i use when i get burnt. actually i only use it after the burn is gone and i get itchy. while i still have the burn i use aloe veraBest creams for Sunburn Itching?
I read on yahoo that deodorant works good and I tried it. It actually does work pretty good. The sunburn itch is the worst!!
Sarna, it is an itch lotion. Can be purchased at drug stores or grocery stores. Or use refridg. aloe gel.
Try Aloe Vera with lidocaine in it. They sell it at most drug store, but make sure it has lidocaine in it.
Gold Bond lol:)

i watched the commercial and it relives all kinds of itc hes:)

Iam suffering from itching tell me about some creams, medicines that i should prefer?

2010-01-06T22:27:00.003-08:00

There are two reasons why this is not the right place to pose this question.

First - you don't say where the itch is.

Secondly - only a doctor or a nurse is the right person to give medical advice.Iam suffering from itching tell me about some creams, medicines that i should prefer?
oatmeal bath you can find it at walmart also benadryl allergy antihistamine helps greatlyIam suffering from itching tell me about some creams, medicines that i should prefer?
This depends on where your itchy and why
Aveeno soap works great!

My dad's had excessive itching 4 over 6 mos now. What can I do to relieve the itching. Rx creams not helping

2010-01-06T22:27:00.002-08:00

OTC Creams and medicine has not helped. We're desperate. Can someone help?My dad's had excessive itching 4 over 6 mos now. What can I do to relieve the itching. Rx creams not helping
For an itch to go on this long sounds like an allergy to something that he's coming into contact with.

Have you changed laundry detergents within the last 6 months? That's one of the first things that a good doctor will ask. It often helps to change to a detergent that is ';free'; of smells - meaning no dyes and no smells. There are several on the market that are good.

This also means no fabric softeners -- unless it's a ';free'; one as well.

You didn't say where the itching is. I'm assuming that it's all over.

This could also be a reaction to a medication that he's on. Often times, itching is one of the top nuisance side-effects of medication. Has he changed medication or started a new medication in the past 6 months?

If neither of those things could be the trigger, it's possible that he's allergic to something he's eating or coming into contact with, which can be extremely hard to figure out. Many people are allergic to milk, wheat, dairy, corn... the list goes on and on.

I would advise that he go and see a dermatologist first, and that doctor may even refer him to an allergist to have testing done to see if they can pinpoint exactly what's causing the itch.

Like I said - I'd try switching laundry detergents, then review his medications before anything else.

Good luck to you!My dad's had excessive itching 4 over 6 mos now. What can I do to relieve the itching. Rx creams not helping
How about a doctor? He probably has scabies.
He needs to see his doctor or a dermatologist. He may need prescription meds or an injection to stop the itching. The doc may need to do some tests to determine what is going on, but I hope it's not anything contagious!
Tell him to visit a doctor. I'm guessing there isn't too many here on yahoo question time
get him checked for Scabies.
Please see a doctor...He'll be able to diagnosis it...excessive itching SOUNDS LIKE poison oak??? But who knows?..Only a doctor knows..or maybe, ask a pharmacist...???
have you tried a cortizone shot?
I have had extreme itching on the back side of my hands. little bumps appeared and it looked weird. doctors all said that it is dry skin, weeks went by and no help with the creams. The only thing that helped was coconut butter lotion. believe it or not it cures stretch marks on pregnant woman and all other skin irritations. tell your father to try it out i cured my hands and i havent had problems sense. i still to this day dont know why may hands were so itchy and looked so bad but the coconut butter really worked.
If you have no obvious rason for the itching...like chemical irritants, allergies or eczma he should get antihystamines from the doctor...
Try an oatmeal bath.

Edit: Can you possibly describe what his skin looks like while he is itching, and how long he itches for.
What other symptoms? Is there a rash, roughness, tracking marks? When none of the medications help, it is time to get a reevaluation for what the root cause is, whether allergy, scabies, dry skin, etc. Good luck.
YES go get some over the counter claritin ( loritidine 10 mg) sam's club has it the cheapest, nothing could stop my excema from itching but ive been taking 2 pills morning %26amp; 2 at night . it works my dermatologist said its safe.
Is there an ';after-hours clinic'; close by? He could need a shot to relieve it. Sounds like some sort of allergic reaction. Try benedryl.
oatmeal bath and calomine lotion(sp?)

Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?

2010-01-06T22:27:00.001-08:00

I was stuck at a wedding all day which rather tight pants and a panty liner. The panty Liner was scented, which i didnt know. During the middle of the day it my vagina started to get uncomfortable, and sore. I went to the Bathroom and removed the panty liner but the rest of the day it started to get worse.. and i couldnt do much about it because i was stuck at the reception. Now my outer Vagina is Sore, itchy and burns very mildly .. When i look at it, the underside of my labia are slightly red.

What over the counter cream should I get to relieve the irritation?. I have no discharge or smell, its just really annoying.. ive been putting A%26amp;D on it but it doesnt do much.Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?
If you were wearing tight clothes for a while you could have got thrush (yeast infection), so I'd try getting medication for that rather than general vaginal creams.

Neither me or anybody else I know has got smelly or abnormal discharge btw, so don't rule out thrush because you haven't got that.Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?
Try diaper rash cream. It is great for any area of the body that is itchy or heat rash. It is also very gentle on the skin.
Canesten. I know it's for yeast infections but it works great for the symptoms you're describing.
I wouldn't put anything on it, it's just an alergic type reaction, not an infection.

If need be just pick any cream but to be honest I wouldn't mess about and probably make things worse.

Just go in a bath with warm water and no soap.
Just wash with a mild soap and rinse well...leave it alone for a while...AND stop using scented liners....
I would wait it out because usually if you had like a yeast infection you would have a fishy smell and discharge. What you have could just be a reaction to the scented panty liner.

I have vaginal itching that won't go away with creams and experiencing pelvic pain. What could it be?

2010-01-06T22:27:00.000-08:00

I am about 99.9% sure that it isn't an STD. I am married and not involved in an affair.My lower pelvic area is hurting not an intense pain just a burning with kind of painful twinges along with itching that keeps going on without any relief from OTC creams for yeast infections. I don't have any discharges or odors down there. Please help!!I have vaginal itching that won't go away with creams and experiencing pelvic pain. What could it be?
Call your doctor. You doctor may be able to diagnose this over the phone, and if not, a quick painless visit will quickly tell you what you have.

It sounds like you have one of three things - a yeast infection, a bacterial infection like vaginitis, or a (sounds unlikely) bladder infection.

If it is vaginities, you some antibiotics will clear it up. If it is a yeast infection, it may be the yeast is not reacting with the creams, and your doctor can prescribe a pill that kills all the yeast cells in your body, and should start to give you relief in one to three days.

It is really easy to get either vaginitis or a yeast infection down there. If your hormones are fluctiating oddly, you are stressed, basically anything that changes the uh, natural flora and fauna, things can start to get out of balance.

So don't worry about a STD. Go to your doctor, and find out what it is. That way if you get these symptoms again you can treat it on your own (if it is a yeast infection). The longer you treat for the wrong thing, the longer you will be uncomfortable. These things aren't any fun! Good luck!I have vaginal itching that won't go away with creams and experiencing pelvic pain. What could it be?
keep it dry and cool place avoid sun light keep it out reach of adults for some days .
I'm 99% sure you'll get rid of the itching. You have this itch probably because of the bacterial build-up in that area.

Change your underwear daily. After urinating, wash your private part off. After you goto the toilet, wash it off instead of wiping it off.
go see a doctor, immediately. you can catch a disease not only from an affair (yours or your husband's), but also by other different ways.
GO C A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY...U MIGHT HAVE AN INTERNAL VAGINAL INFECTION THAT NEEDS TO BE TACKLED WITH IMMEDIATELY OTHERWISE IT CAN WORSEN AND SPREAD....IT MIGHT ALSO BE RELATED TO A TUMOR CONDITION OR A GROWING STEM...PLZ CONSULT A GYNEACOLOGIST THIS V DAY!.....Maybe uve used some kindof hair removing cream etc which is causing the itching....im not the expert but i know what it an be related to! the best way to find out is the doc! get well soon! and plz take care!
At first I would say a yeast infection but you say it isn't. I would go to the doctor because I don't know what else it could be.
Try shaving your hairs away, it may be that.

Have you considered your husband may be having an affair?

Try substain from sex with your husband for a bit, and if it goes away, and you have sex again, and it comes back, it may be him.

You should get yourself over to a gynae, it may just be an elergic reaction to a new panty you got or something you eating.
What are you doing asking here? This is your health we are talking about! Most of the people here are teenagers. Maybe you can get some good advice here and I hope that you do, but for heavens sake go to the doctor!!!

I am hesitant to say this and I don't mean to make you feel bad, but just because a woman ';isn't involved in an affair'; doesn't mean that her husband isn't.

He probably isn't and its probably nothing but don't fool around-see a doctor.
Gonnorhea is nothing to clap about. Go to the OBGYN, ASAP. There are alot of STD's that don't have any symptoms for women.
you definitely should see a professional about this, there are so many things it could be there are pelvic inflammatory diseases, it could be an infection that is reoccurring, it could be a coital infection, some women are sensitive after relations with husbands have to be treated, remember women's equipment is delicate needs careful and constant hygeine and care.
it might be a vaginitis it means that your private organ has a bacteria that eats up the wall of your hymen but you said your married it only happen with virgins so the best thing to do is see a doctor.

Can you use hair removal creams on the male gentalia without pain such as burning or itching?

2010-01-06T22:26:00.002-08:00

I'd encourage u to leave it alone....it's only hair...%26amp; obviously probably should be there...for whatever reason. Your genitalia should be super-sensitive to certain creams, lotions, sharp objects, etc., etc. Try to get to learn to like the gential area in it's hair growth format.....If you feel it is excessive, possibly you can 'trim' with a scissors, or some sort of shaver...This area of your body is designed to remove waste material %26amp; pro-creation, etc. Overall, probably a pretty well adapted design....just maintain it's cleanliness %26amp; go on with your life..Can you use hair removal creams on the male gentalia without pain such as burning or itching?
nooo do not use hair removal down thereCan you use hair removal creams on the male gentalia without pain such as burning or itching?
Leave the hair alone. Bald genitals make you look like you never went through puberty - really pervy. Unless you have crabs, you should never remove the protective hair from that sensitive area.

Nair will make you feel like you have fire ants in your whitey tighties.
Man! just use some clippers and a razor. And shaving cream for sensitive skin.
make your cat lick it off
I......don't.......think........so.
The answer is ...... YES
Yes you can less hassle makes it a whole lot smoother and sensitive. So enjoy hair!!!!!!!!

Creams to use on belly for itching?

2010-01-06T22:26:00.001-08:00

I can't use anything with cocoa butter because I will get a horrible rash, are there any other creams out there to help with the itching, not necessarily stretch marks? I've read that some creams can't be used on the stomach because it will go directly to the fetus so I don't know which cream to buy.Creams to use on belly for itching?
This is going to sound a bit sticky, but it isnt. I use olive oil straight out of the shower with my skin just a touch damp so that it dries nicely, and after im completely dry (a few mins later) baby lotion. It is very soothing %26amp; my skin looks like milk :)Creams to use on belly for itching?
You can use only olive oil if you want. Sounds funny but my grandmother told me to and it works. AND I have no stretch marks at all to top it off.
ive had terrible itching the doctor told me to use calamine lotion its the only thing thats helped i tried allot of normal lotions %26amp; still itched
Cocoa butter cream from Palmers will work. If you can find a Vitamin E oil that will help as well.

Read this similar question that was posted on NetDoctor. It suggests there may be a hormonal reason, although the lady who asked the question has the problem the week before you.

http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/ate/womenshea鈥?/a>Women only please. I get bad itching down there the week before I am due on. I have tried all the creams etc?
I know this may seem stupid - but do you iron the gusset part of the knickers.

a week before you come on - your body (hormones) is changing because the lining of the womb is about to come away - at this time down there can get sensitive, i used to have a similar problem, the doctor told me that a normal wash does not always kill bacteria - but the hot heat from the iron does. i use fem fresh wash for sanitation - and you can get it for sensitivity.
Thats weird.Do u have any discharge?I dont mean to sound like a perv but, where exaclty does it itch?It all depends if u have hair too. for example, I shave daily but if I dont shave everyday I will be itching by the 4th day.Its so accustomed to not have hair.. Anyway, u might want to get a papsmear or to Gynecologist to check you..you might be growing some kind of bacteria like Vaginitis..Its not an StD or anything, its something like a yeast infection. Alot of women get it..
Some woman leave the pubic hair alone and it can get tangled, smelly when you are coming close to your period. Why not cut back the hedge, this may keep it more cleaner longer and easier to manage. Try trim it as short as possible and even, make sure you sterilise the scissors and be care-full
I GET THEM QUITE ALOT TOO. IM ALWAYS ITCHING. BUT I DONT GET PERIODS ANYMORE BECAUSE IM ON THE INJECTION.

IVE ONLY RECENTLY STARTED TO ITCH AND THAT WAS AFTER I USED HAIR REMOVAL CREAM DOWN THERE. REGRET IT AND I WANT TO KNOW A SOLUTION TO STOP IT TOO.
i use femwash for the intimate area and it helps. soap can and perfume can irritant the area.

Can using aqueous cream bp when its past its use by date have side effects such as dry skin, itching etc?

2010-01-06T22:25:00.002-08:00

Hi,

A couple of days ago, I used some aqueous cream b.p on my face that I had been prescribed in 2006. I had had some rough skin and didn't think anything of using the cream since it had been prescribed for a dry rash on my arm previously and had cleared that up no problems. The day after I used the cream on my face I woke up with very dry skin, almost scaley, and its also very itchy. (AAGH). Its all over my face, and down my neck. Exactly where I used the cream, so I was wondering if it could have this effect, especially since youre meant to use it within 3 months of opening, and its been around 2 years. I'm hopefully going to see my doctor tomorrow, but its so hard to get an appointment. Needless to say, I'm not looking forward to walking around my college looking like ';The thing';. =(

I do have a pet rat, and regularly wear makeup, but I doubt its either of those, I have had my rat for months, and almost always wear foundation, so its likely its the aqueous cream. Help! xCan using aqueous cream bp when its past its use by date have side effects such as dry skin, itching etc?
aqueous cream is best used in the shower or bath mix it with the water then put it on ur face. its likely the foundation can cause dry skin if u use it too much u should use a hypoallergenic foundation it works better for ur skin.

If I only have vaginal itching on the inside, AND outside, could I just buy the vaginal cream and spread it?

2010-01-06T22:25:00.001-08:00

Like sread it on the outside and inside?

Would that make the itching stop? Because I think I have a yeast infection, but I only have itching. So would that heal everything up? I'll eat yogurt, too!

Oh, and I know I can put it on the inside, but can I put it in the inside, too? I have the Monistat antifungal cream thing. And if I can't put it inside my vagina, what do I do?

And can I put it in my uretha?

Thanks. :)If I only have vaginal itching on the inside, AND outside, could I just buy the vaginal cream and spread it?
You can rub it over the urethral opening but not actually inside the uretha. Plain yogurt (particularly active cultures) can also restore your natural pH balance if you run out of Monistat. Do NOT douche!!! You may also want to drink cranberry juice for urinary health and switch to cotton underwear in the meantime, until your symptoms clear. Please do not hesitate to see a doctor if the itching doesn't go away after self-treatment.If I only have vaginal itching on the inside, AND outside, could I just buy the vaginal cream and spread it?
Cream is only for the outside.

You may need the Canesten with the pill thing that is inserted inside.

Ask someone at the pharmacy which would be best. Try washing with Summer's Eve and letting the air to it. Dont wear tight panties. You can also put plain yogurt in there. Sounds gross but you can dip a tampon in it and freeze and insert. Other idea would be to go to the doctors and get on antibiotics.
You need to see your doctor, unless it's a yeast infection that you've had and treated yourself before. I don't think the monistat will help outside your vag, try some hydrocortisone or benadryl cream. Benadryl is great for itching, take a 25mg tab (may cause drowsiness) and use some of the benadryl cream as well.
Some creams go inside,

but the cream is inserted by a tube,

just the same as the vaginal pill .

Just go get the pills,

I've heard they work alot better .

once the 7 days or whatever you choose are up,

you feel a whole lot better = )

take care of yourself = ) .

hope that helped
You should use the Monistat applicator, that'll place the cream ball inside to stop the infection. Use the cream on the outside. Eat yogurt with live active cultures in it. You'll be alright.

Don't put anything in your urethra unless it's done so by a doctor.
Go to Dr... they can give you a Rx for this one little pill that will take it away... Treat it cause if you don't it could develop into something worse.....

I tried the Yogurt thing... Doesn't work well.. and not very pleasant to deal with.... Seriously... Or.. you could try one of those Applicator 3 day things......
For a yeast infection you should see a doctor. I doubt antifungal cream would do much, and it may cause irritation.
They say plain yogurt works for inside.
Yuck. Go to a doctor.
WoW why dont u just clean ur pu$$y daily
if it says not for external use, then dont put it inside

yes u can spread it on the surface where it itches..i just got over a yeast infection..the shiit is annoying!!!

I took Clindamycin vaginal cream for a bacterial infection and now have itching (vag.) and mucus in my stool??

2010-01-06T22:24:00.003-08:00

My doctor apparently doesn't care about me. I am 10 weeks pregnant and developed a vaginal bacterial infection. He gave me a 1 dose treatment of Clindamycin cream to insert into the vagina. After I used it I developed fevers almost everyday after and then 1 week later developed severe vaginal itching. I VISITED MY DOCTOR THAT SAME DAY 1 week later. He said if there was something wrong with me it wasn't related and I should go to a general doctor (not him as he is OB/GYN), DESPITE the new vaginal itching.

That was yesterday and today I have green mucus in my stool. I know how to read. It clearly states that rare but potentially serious side effects of the clidamycin cream include vaginal itching, secondary infection, and mucus in your stool.

He will no longer be my doctor, but what should I do right now? It is Saturday and my lovely neighborhood ER refuses to advise on if you should be seen or not (I'm assuming to avoid lawsuits).

I took Clindamycin vaginal cream for a bacterial infection and now have itching (vag.) and mucus in my stool??
You could go to the ER or you could go to urgent care. Either way you will be able to see a doctor at least. Most of the time these side effects are not life threatning unless they say they are. I had to take that stuff before on my third pregnancy I developed a bacterial infection. You probably have a yeast infection. You should go to the store and get the vagisil or whatever brand it is for over the counter care.

I developed a yeast infection for the first time after using this stuff. But alls you have to do is request a new doctor when you call to set up an appointment. I took Clindamycin vaginal cream for a bacterial infection and now have itching (vag.) and mucus in my stool??
I took the same cream for a bacterial infection of the vagina. After using it I did get a lil bit of vaginal itching and my OB was absolutely okay with advising me on treatment. I don't know why yours wouldn't be. Don't use my solution (he told me in some cases it can cause a yeast infection, which I got monistat 3 that comes with stuff like vagisil for itching).

I am almost positive you are having an allergic reaction to it. Go ahead and go to the ER. Most likely they will have an OB check you because this is in the area of expertise of an OB. Kudos on getting a new doc. I wouldn't put up with that if I were you either.

Good Luck.

Just remember go to the ER. Your side effects are consistent with a serious adverse reaction.

How can itching be prevented after using hair removal creams?

i get itching after removing hair from under arms and pelvic region using the hair removal creams.....what causes itching(the skin becomes too sensitive)...........and what alternatives should i useHow can itching be prevented after using hair removal creams?
i know you won't like this answer but you shouldn't use the cream in you pelvic area if it makes you itch. it is very easy to get an infection because the area is dark and moist. (unless you always go naked and don't perspire), have you tried different creams? if so look for something organic. ( i doubt if there is an organic hair removal cream) do be careful. maybe you could ask a dermatologist for suggestions. hopefully one is reading your question.

Have you tried switching your laundry soap? Or the soap you are bathing with?

Could be as simple as that.

Change your soaps and see what happens. Also keep your derm appointment.

Good luck.Itching...lots of it...arms, hands, legs, groin, beltline. Any suggestions? Is there an OTC Cream I can buy?
Try Aveeno cream which is sold at Walmart and take Benadryl allergy tablets every 4 hours. It is an anti-histamine which helps stop your body from producing histamine and if you can stand the smell of vinegar put some in your bath water.
Anti- itch cream available at Walgreens. The ones that contain hydrocortisone are best. Avoid those dryer sheets like bounce. Use a good 5.5 PH bar soap like Caress, less drying, use moisturizing cream daily, get a hypoallergenic one at a health store. My husband and I get that every year at this time. I think it might be a form of seasonal allergy. He uses ice on it to help but I find the anti-itch cream works best.
You need to go see a doctor. This sounds serious. This seems to be internally caused and so a cream does not seem like the rightremedy at this time.
it could be scabies, because they appear where you're having problems. It's worse at night. There's no way to stop scabies unless you see a dr, so he/she can prescribe some permethrin (pesticide used on humans). And scabies is contagious...if you have it you could have gotten it from someone and then you can pass it on, so make sure whomever you've had close contact with knows that you have it, so they can get checked out by the dr. too. Good luck!
If it's that bad maybe you should go to the er and they may have an on call dermatologist.
If you have what looks like little trails on your skin it could be scabies... If so.. scratching actually helps it. Try camphophenique (spelling?) or an oatmeal bath to help any other itching. I always like that better than hydro-cortisone creams. It could be dang near anything.. not sure about a remedy unless I know what it looks like.
check your liver
Is it something new that's happening to you? Check what it is that you are doing different - could be a new soap, shampoo, detergent... artificial additives in food can trigger itchiness too, particularly artificial colourings.

Even fruit juices and soft drinks are loaded with dyes - ultimately you are the best judge of what it is that's causing your allergy.

I hope your doc helped!
Hydrocortizone Cream 1% sold at any pharmacy about 3.99
OTC hydrocortisone, and oral Benadryl

Just check with the pharmacist first to make sure those meds are okay for you
It's important to know the source in order to recommend the best treatment which you will hopefully get from the derm. In the meantime, you can take benadryl (diphenhydramine) 50mg up to 4 times a day. It will make you sleepy though. Steroid creams are the best like hydrocortisone applied to the area. Both are available over the counter.
Itchy Skin Relief

Skincare Tip

I don't think there is anything worse than itchy skin, but luckily there are some simple treatments. Here's a simple solution to itchy skin.

1. Pour one cup of apple cider vinegar into a tub of warm water. The itchiness should be calmed down nicely.

2. Oatmeal is often an ingredient in bath products and its ability to soothe itchy skin is one of the reasons.

3. Does anyone remember Calamine Lotion? I was a child who contantly found every clump of poison ivy and this lotion often came to my rescue.

4. Sometimes all it takes is an application of an unscented lotion to cool the itch.

5. Did you know that wet baking soda will also stop an itch in its tracks? There is simply something about the cold, wet soda that always does the trick

However, if whether you are a male or female, and you don't know what it is, go see a dr.

When you have eczema, sometimes you can have other additional skin ailments due to itching your skin too much as a result of Eczema.

The Eczema makes you itch; your nails break the integrity of your fragile, eczema striken skin and you get other opportunistic skin infections. Perhaps that is what happened in your case. The bethamethasone is a steroid cream that was probably ordered to relieve your eczema.

Clotrimazole is an antifungal cream, which was ordered to treat the fungal infection on your skin. So, the itching probably started with your eczema, then you got the fungal infection on top of the eczema. You are no longer itching because both medications are working for you. Count your blessings and thank your doctor; those creams don't work for everyone with those ailments so you are lucky.

Eczema and a fungal infection should not prevent you from joining the military.This docter gave me some cream for my hand because it itches he said it was a fungal thing on my hand?
clotrimazole is used for fungal infections such as ringworm (not really worms). If this new medicine is working, chances are you do have a fungal infection and not exzema. A fungal infection would not bar you from miliary service.

Good Luck in the military!

Thank youJock itch isnt getting better i have used creams and spray!!!?
time to go to the doctor, you may have something that is not jock itch. I hate to say it: but if you are sexually active, you could have an STI.

Go to the doctor even if you aren't having sex, you could just need medication a little stronger.Jock itch isnt getting better i have used creams and spray!!!?
Be careful with advise. I understand you are desperate to get relive but considering we are talking about your private parts I would be very careful what you put on there. Go to the doctor. This is truly the only way to get safe relieve. Good luck.
Have you tried salicylic acid? That will burn at first but it does the job. Get that at the drug store.
Make sure your wearing 100% cotton underwear,

no sexy nylon crap. been there done that!

What cream to use to cure itching and schaffing after first time shaving the whole thing?

2010-01-06T22:23:00.000-08:00

Sorry for being detailish but I need serious answers please!

I used to shave the bikini area only and it itched alot the 1st times, then it stopped. I decided to shave the whole thing off cause my friends were saying it was nicer and more hygiene, etc... now that they're growing, I'm itching BAD and getting little bumps... What cream do you girls reccommend to help it, vagisil, aveeno, etc??? I don't know, please help.

Thanks

BTW, I'll never shave the whole thing again! %26gt;o(What cream to use to cure itching and schaffing after first time shaving the whole thing?
i have the same problemWhat cream to use to cure itching and schaffing after first time shaving the whole thing?
you need to keep it dry, don't use any creams. any white deodorant/antiperspirant stick actually does a good job. your skin just needs to get used to it, keep it up. guys really appreciate a clean shave
i never used any creams but nair i think has some cream for especially that. you just have to get use to it. the more you shave the less it will itch.

doesn't even itch at all for me.
Definitely Aveeno. It is the best product on the market for itchy dry skin.

I have chronic itching bottom and vulva and I've tried all sorts of lotions and creams.?

2010-01-06T22:22:00.002-08:00

It seems to be caused by the slightest of chafing with pants or panties. Any treatment must be perfume and dye free. I've had it checked out by the dermatologist and they've given me Rx Clobetasol (which you can only use once in a while as it thins the skin). I've used Vagisil too but this does cause occasionally burning Any ideas? Please no jokes or telling me to go to the doctor (I've been). Thanks!I have chronic itching bottom and vulva and I've tried all sorts of lotions and creams.?
Don't put talcum powder near your genitals. There is a recent study to say that it increases cancer risk.

Take some anti histamine tablets to start with. Take a bath with oatmeal in it.

Wear only pure cotton white panties.

Dry with a very soft towel.

Don't sleep in panties most of the time.I have chronic itching bottom and vulva and I've tried all sorts of lotions and creams.?
Yeast infections don’t go away easily; its one of the most annoying medical conditions one can have with numerous symptoms. Its difficult to treat since there is no universal candida yeast infection cure that works for everyone. Combine that with the fact that majority of people are looking for herbal, all natural treatments, and you are left with very few over the counter options.

One over the counter treatment for candida yeast infection that has become popular lately is Yeastrol. If you have never heard of a Yeastrol, here is a short intro.

Its an natural homeopathic relief formula which has shown to be very effective but a long term treatment approach is needed to get cured of yeast infection. Yeastrol works for mild %26amp; severe oral, penile, or vaginal yeast infection.

Which Medications to avoid:

An important thing that needs your attention if you are looking for male or female yeast infection treatment is that there are many products in the market claiming cure in hours or days. Avoid such marketing pitches, at most these claimed yeast infection cures can relieve you of your symptoms for a short period of time. And sooner than later Candida yeast infection returns with more severe symptoms or signs.

You may recognize a useless otc treatment for yeast infection by its boasts of being a natural yeast infection cure. There is no yeast infection medication currently available that is able to cure yeast infection in days. Cure for yeast infection is only possible with long term treatment which kills the root cause i.e. Candida Albicans.

have you tried canesten H with added hydrocortisone as that reduces the swelling and itch and then the underlying thrush if present, can be cured and banished for good. Have you been treated for possible diabetes? I think a gentle dusting with Johnsons baby powder after a shower daily is gentle enough for a baby so try it on your self and see if it gentle soothes you. And hope you feel better soon take care.
Ew.. maybe you should get some kind of yeast infection application. not the cream , like the one with those applicators you insert that you see in the pharmacy, monistate ya
you could have a urine infection - cystits maybe or thrush

Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?

2010-01-06T22:21:00.001-08:00

I was stuck at a wedding all day which rather tight pants and a panty liner. The panty Liner was scented, which i didnt know. During the middle of the day it my vagina started to get uncomfortable, and sore. I went to the Bathroom and removed the panty liner but the rest of the day it started to get worse.. and i couldnt do much about it because i was stuck at the reception. Now my outer Vagina is Sore, itchy and burns very mildly .. When i look at it, the underside of my labia are slightly red.

What over the counter cream should I get to relieve the irritation?. I have no discharge or smell, its just really annoying.. ive been putting A%26amp;D on it but it doesnt do much.Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?
Canesten. I know it's for yeast infections but it works great for the symptoms you're describing.Vaginal burning/itching relief creams.. which one?
I would wait it out because usually if you had like a yeast infection you would have a fishy smell and discharge. What you have could just be a reaction to the scented panty liner.
Try diaper rash cream. It is great for any area of the body that is itchy or heat rash. It is also very gentle on the skin.
If you were wearing tight clothes for a while you could have got thrush (yeast infection), so I'd try getting medication for that rather than general vaginal creams.

Neither me or anybody else I know has got smelly or abnormal discharge btw, so don't rule out thrush because you haven't got that.
Just wash with a mild soap and rinse well...leave it alone for a while...AND stop using scented liners....
I wouldn't put anything on it, it's just an alergic type reaction, not an infection.

If need be just pick any cream but to be honest I wouldn't mess about and probably make things worse.

Just go in a bath with warm water and no soap.

I have used veet sensitive hair removal cream to remove pubic hair twice and always get spots and itching.?

2010-01-06T22:20:00.003-08:00

some of these spots have 'puss' which I can clean up using a warm press but I thought it was only shaving that causes irritation, I dont have an allergy to this product but would like to get good results. Also I'd like to be smooth for more than 1 day which is all this treatment lasts for before I get stubble. I don't want to use wax...please advise??I have used veet sensitive hair removal cream to remove pubic hair twice and always get spots and itching.?
I personally feel that area down there is too sensitive for those creams, and razor are kind of dangerous too, why don't you buy yourself a buzz cutter, it cuts all the hair and it leaves you silky smooth without the razor burn.

Nair and veet burn the skin, if you don't believe me well try this put a drop of Nair or Veet on a small area of your face. Its going to burn the skin and its going to hurt a lot. This is comparable to putting it on your pubic area since both your face and you pubic area are very sensitive.I have used veet sensitive hair removal cream to remove pubic hair twice and always get spots and itching.?
The best way to have least trouble is to trim your hair extremely short before using any method of getting rid of those hair, u can try veet's mild version if u see at the drugstore, also shaving should not be a problem if you don't stroke against the hair growth. . and try not to keep the creme removals for more than 3-4 mins ..

for the itching, apply ice and use an after shave (antiseptic purposes)

and try keeping it as dry as possible, baby powder is the best way to do so.

hope that helps!
There is sulphur in it which is bound to be bad for your skin. There is a company called Skinmedica that produces stuff that is not sulphur based. The hair doesn't come off imediately but the effect lasts.

If you use scented products down there (feminine sprays, wipes, anything) stop immediately. If you use Charmin toilet paper, switch to another brand immediately. If you take baths instead of showers, or use bubble bath, you need to stop immediately. You can try the 7 day over the counter yeast infection treatments, use Vagisil maximum strength for the itching, and see if your symptoms clear up in the 7 day period. If you are still having problems, you should go see a gynocologist. Also, try taking concentrated cranberry capsules, wear only cotton panties, use unscented laundry detergent and no bleach when you wash your panties, and don't wear tight fitting clothes. If you use tampons, switch to pads until your symptoms are cleared up.
Diflucan is used to treat thrush (candida) infection so you have had 2 treatments for yeast infection.

You need to see your GP or nurse and have vaginal swabs taken to see what is going on. There are other infections (not STDs) that can cause itching and discharge.

If you have a partner he needs treatment for thrush too as he can pass the infection back to you if it is thrush that you have.
I HAD THE SAME THING TOO! I HAD TO WEAR WHITE COTTON PANTIES, DRINK CRANBERRY. PUT LOTS OF COLD WATER DOWN THERE, AND IT WAS THE TOILET PAPER THAT I WAS USING TOO!

take an oatmeal bath
I am 31 weeks pregnant and have no stretch marks. I am not sure if it is due to the cream I am using, but I suggest using Palmer's Cocoa Butter Massage for Stretch Marks. This lotion isn't too greasy, it dries up pretty quickly, making it easy to get dressed right after applying the lotion and not feeling sticky or uncomfortable, like most body lotions do. Using this lotion, and drinking lots of water to keep you hydrated helps.
why is this q in the parenting section?
cocoa butter for itching- but i think stretch marks are genetic more than anything- i put a ton of lotion on my belly with my 1st pregnancy i still have a ton of them
Cocoa Butter, or try fresh Aloe Vera from the supermarket.

What natural creams or lotions can stop my genital warts from itching?

2010-01-06T22:19:00.002-08:00

I know I can't get rid of HPV forever. I got that part. What I really need to know is how do I deal with the itching in the anus area?What natural creams or lotions can stop my genital warts from itching?
if you really want to get rid of genital warts forever then you should know that you can remove genital warts by surgery, freezing, laser, acid or cream but genital warts can reappear again and again because genital warts appears when your immune system is weak!

HPV is the virus that causes genital warts. People can be infected with HPV and never show any symptoms. Others will develop genital warts. These warts can stay the same size, grow, or go away on their own. It largely depends on the infected person's immune system. A healthy immune system means your body may be able to suppress the virus and not show symptoms.

Even after the warts go away, the person will always remain infected with HPV. That person can spread the virus even without showing symptoms.

so you must build up your immune system because your body can get rid of genital warts by itself if your immune system will be strong! so eat more healthy food, more vitamins and more sport activities! (No smoking, no beer/ale, no booze, no drugs, no junk food, no fast food garbage, no sugary sweet soda's. Get on a good, balanced, healthy diet including plenty of boiled or steamed vegetables.

Drink P L E N T Y O F W A T E R , fruit juices %26amp; fat free milk. Snack on lots of RAW fruit %26amp; veggies. Get up one hour early every morning %26amp; take a BRISK 30 minute walk - then - do the same thing again in the evening after dinner. Make sure you eat a good, balanced breakfast daily. You get your energy for the day from your breakfast meal. Get 8 hours sleep each night. Flip your mattress over so it will level out to give you a good night's rest. Slack off too much coffee %26amp; tea) also you must use herbal treatment because you can not always live 100% healthy...!!!

in that case Wartrol is really good (probably the best) product that gets rid of genital warts comparatively fast and makes you feel more confident knowing that they wont reappear again! It works by stimulating your immune system to fight the HPV virus that causes the warts. of course it is better if you use full course (5 months - if I remember correctly).

It worked and still works for me!

I do not know if any pharmacies carry Wartrol but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here

http://thehpvvirus.blogspot.com/2009/02/鈥?/a>

The advantage of Wartrol over other natural treatments for genital warts is that, since it is taken orally, it also acts on invisible and internal genital warts that CAN NOT BE treated by other creams and natural remedies.

good luck!

Any type of drug-store bug cream. I know a good one that works the best of all bests but its a chiniese bug itch and bite cream. Pe pai gao. Thats when it sounds like in english. But unless your chinnese, then just get anything that a regular drug store has. Just ask the person at the counter for bug bite oilment and you can find the right one for you. Usally it will cost from $1 to $10.Is there any creams out there that can stop itching?
Stop-Itch.

Fairly straight forward.

Just go to a chemist, they'll have tons of stuff for you.
hydrocortizone - any drug store - between $3-$7

ask a pharmacist, they will point you in the right direction :)
Calamine lotion helps or any benedril lotion
go to your local drug store maybe cvs, riteaid, walmart, try cortaid, lanacane works real well or hydro cordisone any where from 5.99-20.99 probley
stingoes, bepanthen, soov.
Hydrocortisone 1%
Gold Bond powder. I know its a powder but it works.
hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion
u could try cortizone or have strong enough will power not to scratch
goldbond
Benedryl Cream works great!
Maybe stop itch cream?

If cortisol cream isnt doing it, it probably isn't an allergy. It might just take a while to go away, just keep on using it and eating good omega fats in your diet to help aid skin healing.

okay im 14 years old.

i dont want to have to go the doctors and i dont want to have to ask my mum.

i have recently been shaving ';that area'; completely for about the past month-month and a half. i do not think this is the reason for my itching but i thought it could possibly be relevant.

i havent had sex so it cant be an std?

but i have really reaaaly bad itching down there and i have no ida waht it is. it realy realy anoys me at school cos i cant exacly sit there and itch can i cos its in a bit of an awkward place.

i dont know what to do please help me.

please please its so anoying!

thankyou.

please just sensible answers

and incase its relevant- yes ive started my period, and the itching started about a month ago. and i havent had a period in 2 months..

thankyouItching..i need a cream or something please help- WOMEN ONLY please?
its from shaving try waxing next time xItching..i need a cream or something please help- WOMEN ONLY please?
You are itching because the pubic hair is trying to grow back in. What may happen next is razor bumps and ingrown hairs that will produce pus and bumps. It is not a good idea to shave there. Why are you doing that?

No sex. No STDs for sure. You can't get them without sexual activity.

I recommend warm baths and try some carborated vasoline. The vasoline looks brown. You might even want to try something like Neosporin, to keep the razor bumps from getting infected. Be careful not to get either inside the vaginal walls. Wear cotton panties. Nylon doesn't breathe and the tiny hairs will cling to it and pull; causing more discomfort.

Again, no sex, no pregnancy either. It is normal for a period or two to be delayed in a girl who just started her periods. It takes time for the cycle to be regulated.

Shaving is for the bikini line only. STOP SHAVING all your pubic hair.
its from shaving- i tried shaving but it itched and so i tried to wax it instead- feels a lot better and stays longer too. It may leave red bumps for a day or two but it will be better after.
it sounds like the hair follicles being irritated after shaving.let the hair grow back a little,wash with aqueous cream as it will soothe the itching.
Could be worms or crabs. Make sure to clean that area thoroughly everyday and change underwear everyday.

Look up more on these bugs to see if the symptoms match yours.

About the period, it may take years to become regular. Be patient. Girls may start and have a few then stop until they're 16. I'ts just a weird process.
it sounds like you have thrush ,dont worry ,most women have it at some point in the life ,it nothing to be embarrest about ,all you need to do is go to your logal chemist and get some cream or you can get duo's of cream and tablet .

hope this helps ,good luck and dont worry .xxx
Sounds like you've got thrush hun. It's just something that happens when you wear tight underwear, wash down there with strong scented stuff or you shave (no hair = less protection). You should try vagisil - it stops you from itching. But even better is something called Caniston Duo - this has a pill for the internal infection and some cream to provide instant relive. You should stay away from things wiht vitamin c in them too, try drinking LOTS of water too.

Hope this help.
Hi.

My wife gets that (she also shaves and does not have an std).

If in the UK go to Boots and get something called ''Intimate Care Feminine Wash'', it's Boots own brand.

Seems to work wonders, she is a much happier woman since using it (and yeah, she used to make me stand in-front of her while she scratched!)

Also, if you have an odour, it helps with that to.

Good luck kid, and trust me, it works.
Try baby oil after shaving, it might help with that. The itching could be from the shaving, and when the hair regrows it does itch.

It could also be a yeast type infection. Try over the counter monistat or something like that. They also have a moist towlette you can use at school to help with the itching.

But if the itching continues too much longer you need to talk to your mom and or go to the doctor
it is most likely to be related to the shaving. its a very sensitive area. regrowth is itchy at the best of time, but if you have ingrown hairs it can be really uncomfortable.
This was caused by you shaving. I was like that when I first started doing it. When I first shaved my legs it itched me like crazy.
Shaving can cause the itching. This is quite common. You could try trimming the hair rather than shaving and you likely wouldn't have the itching. If you still want to shave the area, go to the drugstore and look in the area with the hair removal products. There will be some products there that you can put on after waxing or shaving. This will help stop the itching. But if it continues, you'd be best to just trim the area really short rather than shave it..
Shaving will cause itching. if its actually ..... *inside* then its thrush.
Sorry, Im a guy.

Most likely to be shaving. Stop shaving and wait a week or so, see if it calms down. Try a moisturiser or something.
Why did you shave???Fashion???..who's going to see? Let it grow, It'll get back to normal.
hey, I think you can go to some herpes info site to find more answers . there is a herpes site http://www.stdromance.com
If the itching is that bad...then its probably vaginal thrush.You can get canesten vaginal pessaries(tablets)...read the instruction and use it.It could also be because of shaving...but it should not cause so much itching...trim hair,dont shave.

If all this does not work...ask ur boyfriend if he has any such symptoms...you will then need to see a GP.In an STD there will also be other symptoms like foul smelling vaginal discharge...so think about it.

I really dont think its something serious,i hope not.
When you shave ';down there';, re-growing hair can be very painful. Try just shaving the edges, on your bikini line.
sounds like you have Thrush

What is thrush?

Vaginal thrush, also called yeast infection or candidiasis, is an overgrowth of yeast that leads to a range of unpleasant symptoms, such as itching and soreness around the vagina. Most women will have thrush at least once during their lives, and many will have more than one episode. But for some women, thrush keeps coming back. Recurrent thrush can affect a woman鈥檚 sex life and self-image, and may be a sign of a more serious health problem. Even if you only have thrush once, it can be extremely uncomfortable. And, if you don鈥檛 know what is happening or why, it can also be very stressful. This online leaflet explains what thrush is, what causes it, how to treat it and what you can do to help prevent it in the future.

Thrush is caused by yeast, already present in the body, which grows out of control. This yeast is almost always Candida albicans, but another, more resistant yeast, Candida glabrata, can also lead to thrush.

Many women, (as well as men and children) carry yeast in and on their bodies without any problems. Yeast usually lives in the intestines, vagina, mouth and skin, where 鈥榝riendly鈥?bacteria help keep yeast levels low. When this balance is disrupted, however, and the yeast is allowed to grow unchecked, it causes havoc in the body.

The vagina is one of the areas most likely to be affected by thrush. Although the vagina is generally too acidic for yeast to grow out of control, it is sensitive to small changes and can easily become an ideal environment for yeast to flourish. Too much yeast irritates the vaginal tissues and this leads to the typical symptoms of thrush.

Symptoms

The telltale signs of thrush include itching, burning, soreness, swelling of the vagina and vulva (outer area of the vagina), and a yeasty-smelling discharge. You may have one symptom or several, and symptoms can range from mild to severe.

Itching and burning

These are the most common symptoms of thrush and often the most distressing. Burning and itching can be so intense it is difficult to resist scratching, but scratching will only make the problem worse.

Soreness, swelling and pain

Thrush irritates the delicate tissue of the vagina and genital area, making it sore, swollen and red. As a result, it may be painful to urinate (urine will sting the inflamed tissue). It may also be painful to have sex. In some cases, anything that touches or rubs the area, including sitting and walking, can be painful.

Discharge

Discharge caused by thrush is usually (but not always) white and thicker than a woman鈥檚 regular discharge. The 鈥榯ypical鈥?discharge linked to thrush is yoghurt-like in appearance and smells strongly of yeast. Some women, however, have a watery or mild-smelling discharge. The amount can also vary from a little to a lot.

treatment either comes in oral form or cream and is avaiable from chemists and suermarkets
Itching 'inside' could be thrush , you could try natural yoghurt,

itching 'outside' ? razor rash? use a moisturize or baby oil or something....

best thing to do is ask your mum - if thrush there are also things you can take, but at 14, you shoul really talk to an adult before you just try them out.

good luck sweetie!
It's thrush, get some cannesten from the chemist, you can get it in cream form, pessary or a tablet, talk to the pharmacist
You have probably got a shaving rash. Why are you shaving down there anyway, who's going to see it? I wouldn't bother if i were you, you will have all that to deal with when you're older and have a partner, i'd just make the most of being natural and lazy while you can! You may even have thrush, especially if you're using soap/ shower gel for the shaving, it will have upset the pH balance of your vagina, allowing the fungus to grow. Do you have white cheesy discharge? If so it is most likely thrush, and you should get some anti-fungal treatment like a canesten pessary from the chemist. You can also get canesten or other creams which contain mild anaethestics to help with the pain and itching. Hope that helps.

MM
Trust me hun its the shaving! Thats why i stopped shaving down there and started going for the neat trimmed look instead, its alot less painful!!!
It is probibly a ph imbalance that causes the itch... For me it gets really bad the week before my period...

It also helps to add baking soda and salt to your bath tub and soak for a while. Use about 1/4 of a small box of baking soda... It is cheep, under $1.00 a box... and you can't use too much.

Go to your local pharmacy, go to the tampon/feminin care isle, and look for porducts that have Benzocain as the main ingredient.

Benzocain is a topical numbing agent.

Vagicil is one brand...

If you have a Target or Walmart around it is MUCH cheeper then buying from a real pharmacy.

Get the ';Extra Strength'; stuff because you need to use a LOT less and it will last you a lot longer for the same price as the ';Normal'; kind...

The Normal kind is 5% benzocain and the extra strength stuff is 20%.

Each tube (at a pharmacy) is about $6.00 but it is only about $2.00 a tube at Walmart.

Just make sure you don't get a ';Fungicide';. That is for Yeast Infections and you don't have a yeast infection... It won't do anything.

What your talking about is NORMAL... Don't be imbarased...

We ALL get it....
dont panic. firstly dont use perfumed soaps etc. go to the chemist and get canestan as it may well be thrush which is very very common and the bain of a lot of womens lives.

If this diesnt help go to your gp they have seen it all and will not make you feel silly
It sounds to me like it is because of the hairs growing back.

If i was you i would shave the area again and see if it stops until it starts to regrow again.

Another thing you could try is going to Boots and getting some Savlon or another antiseptic skin healing equivilant. It might sting a little at first but it will sooth the itching and promote healing.

Another thing - STOP SCRATCHING IT! :P

I really don't think it is anything serious.

It might be thrush, if it is the inner skin that is itchy and not where your hairs grow. You should eb abe to buy some cream in a chemist without your parents also.
If it is the top of your important little place that itching - that's just the hairs growing back. You would be better to use an elecric shaver like a ladyshave as it really doesn't itch at all when it grows back. Or you could wax - but I wouldn't as it hurts like hell! If you are talking about the undercarriage then it sounds like a couple of things to me. You could have a bout of thrush (which we all get from time to time). Buy some Canestan cream or pessaries it works brilliantly and is available over the counter. Another good cream is Lanacane also very soothing. A good natural remedy is live natural yoghurt which you put onto a tampon and insert. It is so cool and soothing. (A little tip - dont be too warm in that area-cotton undies, and when at home no knickers under your skirt until it's better). All these remedies tried and tested by me. Hope they help!:) Could also be caused by allergy to products such as soap, soap powder, bubble baths. Leave well alone!
You need Canesten cream from the chemist.You have thrush.

I'm not sure if you are saying you tried Diflucan or if you are asking if we tried Diflucan. For me Diflucan is the only thing that works for yeast infections. It does stay in your system for 7 days and you don't really start feeling it work until about 12 hours after you take it. But to me creams just irritate and burn you more than the actual infection. Also a good tip (I know it's gonna sound silly) is to blow dry it. Yeast harbors from wetness and using towels are a good way to get yeast because you don't know whats on them. Whenever I feel yeasty and wet I use the blow dryer (doctor recommended) and it really does help.Also don't wear tight pants and only wear cotton panties. A couple of doctors have even told me not to wear panties to let it air out but it takes getting used to. There is a topical cream that my doctor gives as well called Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide cream, it is a prescription. You put a very small amount on your finger then rub you thumb and finger together to remove excess then rub it onto the lips of your vagina. It is not to be used internally and a little goes a long way. This will help with the Diflucan til it kicks in and it also prevents the infections from coming on when you first feel like you are getting one. I could not live without this cream. Good luck, hope you feel better soon.Itching and slight discharge...I got a prescribed cream for yeast infection. Didn't work. Tried Dulfican.?
How long have you been on the medication? Did you call your Dr. or his Nurse and ask how long it should take to clear up? Do some research on the INTERNET about the medication and find out how long it takes to clear up... Just make another appointment to go see your Dr.
about it you can find information from the following website

Why do women have to use a cream for feminine itching?Is this another ploy to stop us scratching our balls?

2010-01-06T22:17:00.001-08:00

OMG! Are you freakin' serious?Why do women have to use a cream for feminine itching?Is this another ploy to stop us scratching our balls?
C.P;

The reason that women have to use a cream for ';Feminine Itch'; is simply because of the way that women are anatomically designed. However, this may or may not be another ploy to ';Stop men from scratching their balls';, since both topics are considered ';Taboo'; in decent society. I suggest that you find a open-minded woman that you can be yourself with, and ask her this question that you've presented, and she'll most likely ';enlighten'; you on this topic.

Wishing you the best, including your itchy balls,

Take a small bowl, some baking soda, and a little bit of cool water. Mix into a paste in the bowl, and then apply the paste to the mosquito bite and leave it on a few minutes. It should help take care of the ';itches';. That's what my mom had us do when we were growing up.

Take care.Is there any household remedies for mosquito bites? I have no anti itching creams/ointments.?
Rubbing alcohol, vinegar, or vinegar, salt, and baking soda. I used the last several times to treat bee stings, and it seems to work.

Good luck!
House hold every day ammonia apply and let dry as many times as needed. Usually just once or twice well do it.
A dab of toothpaste.
Nail polish works everytime...
I have also heard dryer sheets. They also prevent bites because it irritates their feet.
I swab rubbing alcohol on mine. It takes the itch out and makes the swelling go down.
Vinegar
Any antiseptic type of spray or cream will stop the itching. Rubbing with alcohol wipes or vinegar will stop it as well. Once the itching stops dont touch the area if you can, or else the itching will begin again.
rub vinegar on it
Run hot water over them.
PLAIN RUBBING ALCOHOL.

No sign of bites in 12 to 24 hours...................promise.
At summer camp, we use to call it Sister Veronica's Lotion.

We would make a paste of baking soda, vinegar and lemon juice and put it on the bites. A baking soda bath helps take out some of the itch too.
Rub deodorant on it (doctor said so) the regular white kind.
using your thumb nail, push into the bite and make an X across it.

basically make an X mark using pressure from your thumb nail.

it really works. who knows, but we (outdoor workers) do it all the time for a quick fix.

How do you make masquito bites not itch anymore when you already put on creams?

wash off the creams... dab with vinegar it works every timeHow do you make masquito bites not itch anymore when you already put on creams?
i take my nail and i press really hard on them. i mark an x if that makes sense on line i dont think it makes sense lol but yea mark an x on themwith your nail and it stops the circulation to the bite which stops the itchin.btw i hate mosquito bites!
rubbing alcohol helps or an ice cube or cold cloth...heat seems to make it way worse!
The best thing that works for me and my girls is toothpaste..it feels good as it cools the bite..
it's mosquito
Try the Benadryl spray.
aloe vera.
Take a hot shower.
Don't touch or scratch them. Once you touch them they just get worse.

Even though I've put on the yeast infection cream, it still itches..?

2009-12-31T01:32:00.001-08:00

I was just wondering..is it supposed to or is it supposed to rid me of the itch as soon as it's on?Even though I've put on the yeast infection cream, it still itches..?
Ideally, the cream or vaginal suppositories start killing the infection immediatelly. Unfortunately, this is rarely the case. As long as the yeast colony is alive and reproducing there's going to be some invasion into the vaginal mucosa - and itching/burning. Check the package for the expected efficiency of the product, some claim to work in 7, 5, 3, or 1 day. Even the 1-day product takes 6-12 hours before you'll start to notice relief. If you've used the cream for it's specified length, and it hasn't worked, go see your doctor. It's possible you have another type of infection, or contracted a more resistant strain. Either way, she'll be able to prescribe something stronger that should help.

Hope you feel better,

OddEven though I've put on the yeast infection cream, it still itches..?
Cancer go to doter Report Abuse

i no my dad has it Report Abuse

the cream itself does not take care of the itching...at least not right away. takes about a day for it to stop as the yeast starts to die...just deal with it it should be done by the time everyone answers this question.
plain yogurt put it on yourself and take acidophilus tablets
First you should see a doctor and have a culture taken to be sure it is a yeast infection. Over the counter stuff just doesn't always do the trick. It could also be a hormonal problem. If you are low in estogen that can be very nasty and cause much discomfort, eg the itch. If it is a homonal problem it will not go away by itself you will need estrogen cream or tablets, inserted vaginally. This is a very distressing problem and needs a doctors care. Good luck and please don't let it go on, go see your doc.
Try yoghurt. I'm not sure if you eat it, or apply it. Either way is cool.
sometimes it takes a few days for the itch to go away depending on how severe the infection is.

good luck
Give it some more time. It takes about a week to get rid of a yeast infection. The medicine should relieve the itching within 2-3 days, but continue to use the medicine. Good luck, I know it's no fun.
I once had a yeast infection and the itching lasted for quite some time but with use of the cream it went away. The itching i would say lasted ofr about two weeks and the cream took about 5-10 minutes to work. This was a while ago though probably the mid 90s i'm not sure if there are better products. If you are really worried your best bet is to go to a doctor to clear things up for you.
sometimes it may take a little while.

2009-12-31T01:32:00.000-08:00

It's not a ploy....not sure why you'd think it was.

I can't say why we get itchy, but it does happen. Because most women aren't comfortable with scratching their business in public, it's necessary to use a cream. Plus if you keep scratching it, you're eventually going to create an open sore, and that would just plain suck.Why do women have to use a cream for feminine itching?Is this another ploy to stop us scratching our balls?
because hairy balls tend to do this to us. just joking we are internal and its harder to itch. guys are external and this is easier to scratch.

I have recommended Capsaicin cream to patients of mine who have had pain/itching follwing shingles. Unfortunately, this postherpetic neuralgia pain can last for some time, so hang in there.What are the best creams to relieve the itching and redness and scaring associated with shingles?
Sorbelene and Glycerine creme.

It is great for dry and damaged skin, my daughters use it alot because they get exema.

It is not scented so will not irritate.
It really depends on if you tend to develop alot of scar tissue. You can use benadryl cream for the itching, but use Vitamin E oil for scabbing. You may also use 100% pure coco butter. There are not usually deep enough to cause alot of scarring, but again depends on your body.
Call your Dr. spend the cash shingles are not to taken lightly. I learned the hard way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What can i use temporarily for my childs chicken pox itching or creams ?

2009-12-31T01:31:00.001-08:00

that i can use for tonite until the morning when i take her to the dr and if she has a full sleep suit on do i have to worry about spreading it to others or is this fine i mean like blankets pillows and what notWhat can i use temporarily for my childs chicken pox itching or creams ?
I would put sox on her hands so she doesnt itch them. and just reassure her to try not to scratch them. Give her a bath in oatmeal (I cant remember if baking soda helped too or not) but you want something that will sooth the itching like calamine lotion. I dont think you would need to take her to the dr unless it gets really bad. Just get something for the itch and keep her home. Unless you really want to pay a doc that is gonna maybe tell you the same thing or give you some script for the itch that you could have bought over the counter anyway. Because chicken pox are a virus the doc usually wont give anything to your child such as antibiotics. But he will if your child scratches them and the sores become infected. Just keep her home and make sure she doesnt scratch The other thing is feed her some bland food nothing to acidic cause she may have them in her mouth as well.What can i use temporarily for my childs chicken pox itching or creams ?
If you have Calamine Lotion or Hydrocortisone maybe it would maybe help with the itching. It's what I put on mine. I also took a bath in oatmeal and it felt pretty good. I'm not sure about the full body suit thing. I would still wash everything afterwards just in case.
Oatmeal. It will get on the sheets, but it won't stain them or anything. Wet some in a sock and use the paste that drips out. If she's showing spots, then she's pretty much over the contagious phase, that happens before they start to show spots. I would keep any other kids you have out of the room, but they've probably already been exposed.
If you don't have aveeno bath soak take some plain oatmeal and have her soak it feels really soothing I would wash every thing with hot water often I think it should be followed up with Calamine lotion and give her some benadryl for peaceful sleep.
Calamine lotion is good, give them a Acetaminophen and pleanty of rest should do.
calamine lotions help with itching.
aveeno oatmeal bath, and keep the others away but chances are they will end up with it too.
oatmeal baths.

just put oatmeal in a tub of hot water.

It sounds weird, but it'll sooth her skin.
Have them take a warm bath with baking soda in it it will work promise!

My girlfriend vegina is itching her she want to know what cream or medicine can stop it .?

clotrimazol and...yes, yogurt. two days...itch and burning are gone.My girlfriend vegina is itching her she want to know what cream or medicine can stop it .?
She may have a yeast infection, so she needs to see the doctor right away. I know of no cream or meds that can be used in the ';vagina'; for an itching problem.
First of all, it is a VAGINA. With pain during urination and a severe itch, she might have a Urinary Tract Infection. This does not sound like a plain yeast infection that can be ';cured'; with over the counter creams and other products.

If this is a Urinary Tract Infection the symptoms would be: always feeling like you need to urinate but you don't and it is PAINFUL. The itch is just a bonus. DO NOT ITCH and SCRATCH as this will only inflame the problem. One and a very good remedy is CRANBERRY JUICE - 100% Ccranberry juice. Not juicy juice or packets of juice. Bottles of CRANBERRY JUICE and drink at least 8 ounces every hour! This is an old home-remedy and it works.

However, she should really go to a Gynecologist or ';woman's clinic'; and be properly diagnosed.

My sympathies, been there had that, and good health!
She needs to see an MD if it hurts or burns when she pees. A cream will not cure it.
She most probably has a urinary tract infection or a yeast infection. She should see a gynocolgist (doctor for ladies). In the meantime she should try some over the counter medications like Monistat --she may need an antibiotic and if she does she should be eating yogurt for some side effects of antibiotics. In the meantime--no sex.
Vagisil will work if its just an itch. If it still itches after that, then she may have a Yeast Infection, in which case she needs Monistat or something.
use prepararetion H the is the name od the cream,get some medicine for the fungus.is the cream does not help.
She can use Bactroban Cream or she can get a leaf from a aloe vera plant.
she could have a bacterial infection or yeast tell her to get it check i know its a pain but they can tell you right away.And give her somthinhg to ease the itch or pain.
could be an std like herpes or crabs..yeast infections usually come with discharge..i would tell her to go to the doctor!
She needs to go the doctor asap for a diagnosis as these symptoms could mean a variety of things.
vagisil is a temp fix. She should really go the dr though. It could be more serious than a yeast infection

It sounds as though you have an infection...it could be a urine infection but if you go to the doctor or see the nurse in the practise they should be able to give you something to sort it out !!!!I keep itching down below? and a cream discharge?
You have a yeast infection that can easily be cured by over the counter meds like Monistat. I prefer the 3 day treatment called monistat 3. I really cures it in 3 days.

Sounding by you symptoms it may have turned into a bladder infection. Treat it with the monistat right away, like today, and if you are still burning when you wee after that you will need to see a doctor for antibiotics.

There are many reasons why you could have gotten it. If you have been on some antibiotics within the past three months it could cause it, or if you sweat a lot recently down there, or if you just have been wearing tight clothes in the heat, or sweat a lot when you sleep.

It is very common and nothing to worry about, but you need to tell a parent about it so they can know what is going on. Especially if you end up needing to go to the doctor, the parent will need to know what it had progressed from.

Good luck and hope you feel better soon.
probably just yeast infection..you can go to walgreen/Longs drugs and buy an over-the-counter cream for that..it should disappear within several days...if not, ask you parents to see an OBGYN for checkup to make sure its nothing more than an infection.

wash yourself with soap and water after using the restroom. avoid using heavy scented soap to wash yourself, if you can, use ivory or dove soap.

sometimes when it hurts to pee, you might just have an urinary infection or bladder infection...avoid drinking sodas at this time and drink lots of water and it should go away within a week

goodluck
You probably have a yeast infection. you don't necessarily need to be sexually active, you can get it because of several factors such as humidity, tight clothes; You also need to wear cotton underwear not nylon. Buy yourself Monistat 7 or I think they have other new ones. But don't be scared it will go away.
It's an infection, i 'm sure because i had it too. It's nothing serious. Can happen all the time/ PE you 've been taking antibiotics or have been ill recently.

In Europe you can buy ';DAKTARIN'; without prescription at the pharmacist's. It comes in salve, unguent or in little egg shaped dragees that you have to insert...there. It cleans the fungal infection, sooths skin and stops the itching.

If problems persist, go to your doctor and ask her what to do.
hiya it sounds like a yeast infection also know as thrush or candida if you speak to the pharmacist they will recommend something for you to clear it up, i had an oral medication when i had it a few months ago and within 2 days of taking the pill it had gone. i know its extreemly unpleasant but easily sorted
Sounds like a yeast infection, they aren't a big deal. But if you want to make sure, Vagisil makes an over the counter test for yeast, vaginitis, and UTI's. you may want to invest in one of those just to make sure. i think all you have to do is pee on it. and all of those illnesses can be cured otc, or just a trip to the doc for some antibiotics.
you should tell your mum and get a doctor involved (even though its embaressing!!) its not anything serious like HIV or AIDS so dont worry.

just get it checked out and get some medication . it will soon clear up.

otherwise it might just be thrush so try canesten duo
Most likely its a yeast infection.You can get all kinds of things at your local drug store to help with it.Good luck!=)
Sounds like yeast infection. It will go away with treatment. Call your gyno and make an appointment.
Thrush, which is a yeast infection.

Go to a chemist and buy some cannestan.
It's probably a yeast infection. Go to the store, get some Monistat cream, and see a doctor if it doesn't go away.
It's most likely some kind of infection. Go to a doctor or parental unit. They'll help you out.
Try caneston Cream, and Pessaryies.it will help you.
Cover it in natural yoghurt. Don't use a muller fruit corner.

How do I get poison ivy to stop itching? I've tried hydrocortazone cream AND benadryl. Nothing worked!?

Using the juice from the aloe vera plant can help to take some of the heat and itch out of the situation.

The hulls and leaves of black walnut can be used to create a poultice that can be applied to the infected area. Like the aloe vera, black walnut will help to pull out some of the heat and the infection that is causing the rash.

Itching can be caused by a plethora of reasons. Some of the most common causes for itching include -

Exposure or contact with chemicals.

Sunburn can cause itching.

Insect bites or stings.

Certain infectious diseases such as chicken pox cause itching on the skin.

Parasites on the body such as body, head or pubic lice can cause itching.

Itching can be the result of an allergic reaction to certain foods, plants or pets.

Dry skin is a common cause for itching. This is usually seen in older people as aging skin is often dehydrated.

Cold weather, overexposure to water and hot baths typically cause itching.

An unfavorable medication could cause itching as a reaction.

Itching can happen during the later part of pregnancy due to the stretching of the skin especially on the lower abdomen area.

Skin conditions such as Psoriasis, Seborrheic dermatitis, Urticaria, Pityriasis rosea can cause severe itching.........................Take a bath in one can of evaporated milk; you can add other combinations such as oatmeal, baking soda etc. The milk works well to soothe the itching.

Apply Aloe Vera, cod liver oil, lemon juice, vitamin E oil, wheat germ oil, or witch hazel tea to the itchy area.

Take burdock, chickweed, goldenseal, plantain, or yellow dock in capsule form.

Cornstarch helps relieve itching. You can pour some into your bath water or dust it onto your body.

Scrub the affected area lightly with a pumice stone. Then wash with soap, apply rubbing alcohol, and dab a thick layer of Vaseline over it. This will provide relief from itching.

Take a bath with a little peppermint or yellow dock to relieve itching.

Add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to your bath water to relieve itchy skin.

Baking soda can be used in cool bath water to soothe other skin irritations and alleviate itching from prickly heat, bee stings, insect bites, and other minor skin ailments.

Another trusted home remedy is to use a weak carbolic acid lotion or a solution of bicarbonate of soda (commonly known as baking soda) and applying it over the itchy part.

Apply cold compress to the itchy areas, it is thought to bring relief from itching.

Fresh stinging nettle oil can be used on the affected areas.

Drinking 1 to 2 cups of Nettle tea daily is thought to help relieve itching. Add boiling water to 1 tsp of the dried leaves for each cup. Steep for 15 minutes.

Apply Burdock root oil to the skin to help heal rashes and itching.

Fresh Chickweed poultice is good for itching. This can be made by soaking 2 large handfuls in water. When the plants soften, cool them and apply directly on the skin.I hv itching on my eyeshadow plz help tes me some home remedy on skin cream?

Is there any cream for general skin disorders or itches ?

2009-12-31T01:29:00.003-08:00

This all depends on what is causing the itch. If it's minor topical dermatitis, try benadryl or hydrocortisone cream. Calamine also works in some cases. Like a previous poster mentioned, trying Aveeno products helps if the itch is caused by dry skin. Something that I had found that works for some people is emu oil. Yes, a bit on the odd side, but several people swear by it, and I have used it with success on my 1 year old's diaper rash.

Now if the itch is something more serious (ie: psoriasis or eczema) you'll need to see the doctor for potent medication. I have a slight case of psoriasis and use a cream called triamcinolone. This works for me, but might not for you. There are several meds out there, depending on the cause of your itch and/or skin disorder.Is there any cream for general skin disorders or itches ?
If you choose to try hydrocortisone cream, use sparingly. Overuse can eventually lead to thinning of the skin. Report Abuse
Is there any cream for general skin disorders or itches ?
see a dermatologist..there are all types of itches and rashes, and you will want to make sure you have the right ointment. other than that, neosporin works wonders for a lot of rash conditions, and will assist in healing your skin as well
Hydrocortisone cream is for itchiness. Also, Aveeno makes a lotion with menthol in it that is supposed to help with itching.
yeah you can get antifungal cream that usually does it. you can buy it in most drug store or dept store.

The creme can cause itching and irritation so it means that it is working. you have to give aldra time to work before you'll see any difference. You can use aloe vera when you don't have the creme on. Put it in the fridge before hand so its nice and cold.

My hus has a rash under his belly button that itches been using antifung cream no help mayb fungus?

2009-12-31T01:29:00.000-08:00

Has he changed soaps or laundry detergents lately? It could be an allergic reaction. In that case, you could try hydrocortisone cream applied twice a day for a few days. If that doesn't help, or it gets worse, he'll need to show the doc and get something else ordered.

There are different types of anti-fungal cream. If one doesn't help, you could try a different ingredient. Read what it says on the tube of cream you have now, then find one that contains a different ingredient.My hus has a rash under his belly button that itches been using antifung cream no help mayb fungus?
Might be due to dryness and hot showers. Have him take colder showers. Also hard water might contribute as well.My hus has a rash under his belly button that itches been using antifung cream no help mayb fungus?

I think I have a yeast infection, but I only have itching. I put the Monistat cream on, and...?

2009-12-31T01:28:00.003-08:00

I put it on the infected areas and it's making it even more itchy/irritating!! Maybe I don't have a yeast infection? Because my skini dries up bad in the Winter, and maybe it's just because of dry skin? What do you think?

I'm 13, virgin, by the way.I think I have a yeast infection, but I only have itching. I put the Monistat cream on, and...?
Often the Monistat cream will cause temporary burning when first applied to the area that is affected. It takes a couple of days for it to take effect. If you do have a yeast infection, you can try a tablet called Fluconazole to get rid of the infection instead of the cream. They are normal prescribed by the doctor. If you have a community health clinic, you can simply go to them, they`ll ask you for a urine sample and they`ll use a little test strip to check right away if you have any infection. Minor scratching once in a while is normal, but I definitely think you need to see a doctor to give you more than the cream you have. It could possibly be just dry skin, but again, he or she can verify that for you. Yeast infections are very common, and it`s best to get them checked up immediately before they get worse.

*In reference to the rude person below, I made a mistake, as everyone in the world does and will correct myself. I meant to say that if you do not have a yeast infection- instead possibly a UTI, then they can treat it with something like a Sulpha drug to clear it up. Often urinary tract infections will accompany a yeast infection. In this case, the doctor may prescribe both medications to be safe before he gets the results of the tests back. Now please people, stop using forums to attack people. Any person in their good mind knows this is not a substitute for sound medical advice.I think I have a yeast infection, but I only have itching. I put the Monistat cream on, and...?
Yeast Infection: Douche morning and evening with a two quart hot water bottle/douche/enema bag. Filling it with as hot of water as you can tolerate but not so hot that it burns you. This is very effective at killing yeast as it summons your own white blood cells to the area of infection and they do a splendid job of killing the infection. One or two days treatment is normally required to get over most yeast infections.
it may not be yeast. you should NOT be using monistat. the problem with monistat is that when you misdiagnose yourself (as you likely have), you treat something you don't have. doing this may cause your body to become resistant to monistat. one day, when you really do have a yeast infection, it won't work--cheers!

you need to see a doctor if you think it is yeast. studies show that most women are incorrect in the self-diagnoses.

clean yourself off and wait a day or two to see if things get better on their own.

ps - that ';nursing student'; is wrong and should probably fail out of nursing school. antibiotics DO NOT treat yeast--in fact, sometimes they cause yeast! yeast is not bacteria!
Monistat needs to go on the inside of your vagina, not just on the outside. you need to tell your mom what's going on. you could be having an allergic reaction to detergent, soap, shower gel or something else.

I removed hair from under arms ,i got itches there.Is there method or cream available to get rid of pain?. ?

2009-12-31T01:25:00.003-08:00

there's this hanna isul product called recovery ointment. it helps heal rashes, rosacea, burns, skin irritation, cuts, bruises, scars, etc etc etc. and helps sooth pain and inflammation and such. it helps repair the skin or something like that and has aloe vera in it and other stuff to help make all the redness and pain stuff go away. but its really expensive so idk if your willing to spend about 60$ depending on how much of it u want. for me, i always use it everytime i get cuts, scabs, etc. even if i get a pimple and then pop it, i put some of that stuff on and then it heals it. once i went to this place and they did this thing on my face and it made my skin RAW it was disgusting. like they bascially just peeled off like 5 layers of skin in like one little section of my face! and it hurt when i touched it because it was literally just raw skin. so then i put that stuff on it every single day, and now u cant even tell anything ever happened there, not even a scar left. so it works really good and for me i would say its worth the money, but u might be the type of person who doesnt want to spend alot of money. also when i wax my armpits it gets really red and itches too and really irritated and stuff, but i just put this cream on it and then it gets all better. i would probably get the 2oz or 4oz. the 2oz is 59$ and the 4oz is 95 and u have to order this online unless u live in the area where they're located, which is fort worth texas. its better than paying bunches of money to get some treatment thing.so if you buy this, tell me if u like it as much as i do!I removed hair from under arms ,i got itches there.Is there method or cream available to get rid of pain?. ?
use antiseptic (dettol/savlon/ or any aftershave) and clean the armpit if itch persists and progresses to reddness use antiinflamatory ointments. if it gets infected use nebasulf- it is a broad spec antibacterial dusting powder-neomycin and sulphurI removed hair from under arms ,i got itches there.Is there method or cream available to get rid of pain?. ?

It is common. It could also be the cream you are using. Try a hypoallergenic cream, this may help and stop the itching.I am 4 months pregnant an my stomach itches really bad does that happen or is it the cream im useing?
o ya this definitely happens to pregnant ladies i know how you feel it sucks cuz it itches so much but your not supposed to scratch or you will cause stretch marks. just try using palmers cocoa butter.
that is very usual it always happens unless you are allergic to the cream
It's because your skin is preparing to stretch out, try using coco butter.

I take pain medication and my reaction to this is extreme itching. Can you suggest a good cream to use?

I have tried Gold Bond Medicated Cream which just works OK..any suggestions would be apperciated..ThanksI take pain medication and my reaction to this is extreme itching. Can you suggest a good cream to use?
It totally depends on the kind of itch you have and what your symptoms are. Is it a rash? Bumps? Little blisters? Where is the itch?

If your itch is extreme I would do the following:

1st: Make an appt. to see a dermatologist and tell him (or your doctor) about the side effects of your meds. They should be able to perscribe a perscription strength hydrocortisone cream.

2nd: Hydrocortisones are one topical that will ease your itching, but it's not the only thing, and it doesn't stop all itches.

There are also steroid cremes that aren't like real steroids- but they have real itch stopping strength.

Clobetesol Propionate is one such itch stopper. It's awesome and stops itch on contact. But again, more info. is needed about the nature of the itch and where it is/what it looks like on the skin.

Good luck,

Hope this was a best answer for you!!I take pain medication and my reaction to this is extreme itching. Can you suggest a good cream to use?
you're probably allergic to the meds. that's usually a good sign. tell your doc. you may need a different brand of pain meds.
I would suggest asking your local pharmacist and contacting your doctor for assistance. Your condition could worsen and it should be looked at by a medical professional.
hydrocortisone works great or calydryl theres something in opiates that causes itching because it used to do that to me
bacatracian, aveno, calamine, etc.
What it sounds like is an allergic reaction.

Take some Benadryl!

trust me, it works!

Get ahold of your doctor and ask about then prescibing a cream called Triamecinilone cream 1%. It is a steroid cream good for rashes, itching and dry skin. Winter causes a lot of odd skin problems. You should talk to your doctor first though.
There is this stuff called Inotyol you can get in Sweden. Research it and find an equivolant where you live.

Question about vagisil itching cream. Please answer?

2009-12-31T01:24:00.001-08:00

Hey,

I was wondering, is vagisil only for the outer parts, or can I apply it at most a few inches into the entrance? I did have irriation on the outside and vagisil worked wonders but I'm now experiencing a little bit of itching just a few inches in? Is it alright to apply in this area?

I know it says for external use only, but does that just mean don't eat it? lmao

Thanks!Question about vagisil itching cream. Please answer?
HAHA you can put some up to an inch in.. Don't just start squirting the whole bottle up there!! They say external b/c they don't want any really soaking into the blood stream.. As long as it's a little in, and only a little ointment, your fine.

beware, it may sting a little!Question about vagisil itching cream. Please answer?
no dont put it inside... its only for the outer... it burns so bad if you put it inside omg... good luck.. just get the vagisil powder and when you're itching dont scratch it just leave it alone..
i always put it inside.

nothing really happens to me.

but i think it does get a little irritated cos i then produce more discyharge than what i normally have.
If you're itching that much, please go see your doctor or gyn. Sounds like an infection to me--eg. yeast. Or if your panties are nylon, not cotton, that can cause itching too. But get checked out!

Hello,

Is Aveeno Calamine %26amp; Pramoxine HCI Anti-Itch cream and/or Gold Bond Anti-Itch cream ok to use during pregnancy?

I'm 28 weeks pregnant and I have an itchy belly! I've asked my Doctor about the creams and he said they should be fine. But he also said that if they don't work then he'll give me a steroid cream and well if he thinks steroid creams are ok then I'm not to sure about his opinion on these creams. I might be just paranoid but I like to get more then one person's opinion on things like this. And besides I think I have the right to be just a little paranoid about the health of my babies :)

Anyways, Do you know if these creams have any side effects?

Thank you!!!

I'm 33 weeks with twins and I used the Aveeno cream for a rash I have on my legs and feet. It didn't work but my doctor said it was safe. I also tried regular calamine, hydrocortizone and benadryl, all suggested by my doctor. In the end none of it worked for me, but it sounds like yours is just the normal itchy belly from the skin stretching. If you really don't want to use a medicated lotion, I heard that aloe vera lotion is really good and helps to hydrate your skin so the stretch marks aren't so bad. If you develop a rash though you should be sure to mention it to your doctor.

Good luck!

your back is itching because its drying out. the peroxide will dry your skin out.Why is my back itching after using 10% BENZOYL PEROXIDE Clearasil ACNE Cream for 4 days? What can I do?
Either you are having an allergic reaction towards it or the medicine is drying out your skin causing it to get itchy.
that happens to me alot if my nerves flare up on my back,and i use gold bound medicated body powder or lotion in the green the other goldbond lotion and powder containers are yellow like looking,they all pack alittle haet but i have always felt better
some people are allergic to BP, Im one of them.

it can dry it out at first, maybe your using too strong % of BP

try the 5% or better yet, the 2.5%. 10% is too strong for most people who can tolerate it!! try the lower % on those areas

but please lay off a few days or a week and then try it, if it continues to itch/irritate. stop! I have had allergic reactions

to even the 2.5% BP is strong stuff!

as for the itching, just leave it alone a while. ditch the 10%

for now. if you can't tolerate the low dose, don't risk it further.

you may have a yeast infection. You may like a lot of sugar, but sugar feeds the yeast growth, so does white flour.

Boric acid does wonders for that as far as externally goes. Building your immune system with healthy foods that support and combat diseases is a good way to go. Raw Garlic and Onions are yeast killers and are safe for Moms. Also eating Nutritional yeast helps replenish the b vitamins that the ';Candida yeast'; tends to eat away. Stress can cause this also so try and relax. Take a walk. Take a shower, (but not a bath). Get a massage. Get enough sleep. Go swimming in the ocean. (the salt water is great).I have a terrible itching in my vagina. I am pregnant. I use Monistat cream but it became worse?
it sounds like a yeast infection. have you tried the monistat more than once cause it can burn the first couple of times you use it. if you have tried treating a yeast infection and it still doesn't go away then go see the dr.
If Monistat isn't working, you might want to try eating yogurt with active cultures; this may help boost the vaginal ';fauna'; that helps keep the yeast (which is always present in small numbers) in check. You could also try a vinegar-and-water douche; you can mix it yourself, or you can buy it at any drugstore. If that also doesn't work, then it's time to see your doctor.
If not a yeast infection...it could be an STD. Def have a dr. run the gauntlet of STD tests.
Sounds like you spend too much time analyzing yourself. Please see a doctor and remember that is an area that needs to be kept clean
Is this your first pregnancey? Most women get a some of the same symtoms with each pregancy. But when you are pregnant you can expect almost anything to happen with your body because it is going through so many changes. This is usually when women find out when something is going on with their body like diabetes,std's and things like that. You will just have to speak with your obstetrician. (doctor)
inject yogurt directly into the vagina this will bring quick relief be sure it says live active culters this will be effective if it's yeast if not see your gyno
Might be a yeast infection, but I would see the doctor, since you are pregnant.
stop using monistat

you probably have a yeast infection, and you should consult a doctor

dont worry, i wont hurt your baby
Firstly, you should tell your OBGYN about any vaginal changes during pregnancy.

Secondly, you should NEVER use a douche or similar protect to wash out your vagina! Your body produces bacteria that keeps your vagina healthy, and using douches kill the bacteria and can cause yeast infections.

Just go see your OBGYN. It's very important when you're pregnant to let them know about ANYTHING like this.
There is a natural balance of yeast and bacteria in the body. During pregnancy because of the changes to your body, it is common for one or the other to get off balance. If Monistat did not treat it or made it worse, it is likely that you have a bacterial imbalance, or bacterial vaginosis. It is not serious, but you will need a prescription to treat it. Since you are pregnant, I recommend seeing your OBGyn, as some untreated infections can cause issues in the pregnancy if they are not resolved.

I took 4-5 treatments of scabies cream and it seems that is not helping. It does help for a bit but I still have some bumps that go down and then get bigger over time. The cream is seems to not work, any suggestions to what it is? I washed everything in my room every time I applied a treatment. I can't take this, and I feel things crawing under my skin, and it's effecting my relationship. Any help would be great. I was treated for scabies, took the cream like 5 times in the past 3 months and I still itch and rashes, help!?
You have to wash all you linen and clothes in boiling water, get your mattress professionally cleaned and clean your whole apartment or where ever you live. And I mean clean everything. Curtains, pillows etc.. Good luck to you.I was treated for scabies, took the cream like 5 times in the past 3 months and I still itch and rashes, help!?
OHHHHHHHH Honey, I feel you. I was treated for svabies, body lice, shingles and all sorts of things. Now they say I am having an allergic reaction to a medication that I am on, but of course they can't tell me which one. I have been miserable for months with the rashes and itching and the only thing they have given me that helped at all, and it is only a short fix, is a medication called Methyl-Prednisolone. It calms the itch and rash ALOT. But if you find out what your rash is let me know as I have my Dr's befuzzled with mine. But good luck and I hope they find you some relief Cat
I'm not sure if this is the same but i thought i had scabies once but the doc told me it was a bacterial infection from being TOO CLEAN !!! I was using anti-bacterial soap and what it does is kill all the bacteria on your skin, you actually need to have some to stay healthy, the doc told me to not wash for a week so that it would come back to normal, that's what i did and it cleared up in about 2 weeks.

Can anyone tell me some tips or some cream to control vaginal itching?

i tried using vagisel cream but not working . am not able to sleep at night because of this but there is no itching in day time pls helpCan anyone tell me some tips or some cream to control vaginal itching?
Vaginal itching

Common causes of vaginal itching include:

Chemical irritants -- such as detergents, fabric softeners, feminine sprays, ointments, creams, douches, and contraceptive foams or jellies.

Vaginal yeast infection -- often includes a discharge that is white and curd-like. Vaginal yeast infections can be brought on by antibiotics, birth control pills, pregnancy, menstruation, condom use, sexual intercourse, diabetes, and a weakened immune system.

Vaginitis -- inflammation, itching, discharge, and odor caused by other infections (including sexually transmitted diseases). Vaginitis in girls before puberty is common. If a young girl has a sexually transmitted vaginal infection, however, sexual abuse must be considered and addressed.

Menopause -- the drop in estrogen causes thinning of the vaginal wall and less lubrication.

Stress -- may increase vaginal itching and make you more susceptible to infections.

Other possible, but less common, causes of vaginal or vulvar itching include:

Pinworms (a parasitic infection mainly affecting children)

Certain skin conditions affecting the vulvar skin, some of which may be precancerous

Home Care Return to top

To prevent and treat vaginal itching:

Keep your genital area clean and dry. Use plain, unscented soap.

Avoid colored or perfumed toilet tissue and bubble bath.

Wear cotton panties or pantyhose with a cotton crotch. Avoid panties made from synthetic materials. For infants and toddlers, change diapers often.

Change out of wet clothing, especially wet bathing suits or exercise clothing, as soon as possible.

Avoid feminine hygiene sprays and douches.

Eat yogurt with live cultures or take lactobacillus acidophilus tablets when using antibiotics. Check with your doctor.

Cleanse by wiping or washing from front to back (vagina to anus) after urinating or having a bowel movement.

Lose weight if you are over weight.

Keep your blood sugars under good control if you have diabetes.

It is also helpful to:

Avoid scratching, which will only aggravate the problem.

Avoid overexertion, heat, and excessive sweating.

Delay sexual activity until your symptoms get better or at least use a lubricant during intercourse.

Use condoms to avoid catching or spreading sexually transmitted diseases.

If you know that you have a yeast infection because your symptoms are exactly the same as those in the past, try over-the-counter creams or vaginal suppositories

WHEN TO SEE YOUR DOCTOR

--------------------------------------鈥?br>

* Itching persists more than three days, doesn't respond to home remedies or is getting progressively worse.

What Your Symptom Is Telling You

Unless you spend your summers at a nudist camp, your private parts are often covered in three or four layers of material鈥攑erhaps a pantiliner, panties, a pair of snug-fitting pantyhose and your coolest Calvin Kleins.

So what is that warm, moist part of you doing under all those layers?

It's itching! And it's driving you nuts.

Vaginal itching can come from something as simple as trapping bacteria for too long under too many layers of too-tight clothes. All that warmth and moisture provide perfect conditions for incubating infections.

In fact, itching can be the unwelcome calling card of a wide variety of infections, ranging from bacterial vaginitis to yeast (also called Candida albicans or monilia) and trichomoniasis.

The itching can also signal an allergy to a chemical in soap, deodorant or dye, or may simply be a sign of thinning vaginal tissues in women approaching menopause.

Symptom Relief

Let's take a soothing look at how to banish that infernal itching.

Sitz in some salt. Several forms of vaginitis will often respond to a simple home remedy鈥攖he saline sitz bath. Here's the recipe from Gideon Panter, M.D., a gynecologist in New York City.

Dissolve a half-cup table salt in a shallow tub of warm water. In the tub, insert your finger into your vagina to let the warm salt water in, then remove your finger and relax for 10 to 15 minutes. Two or three consecutive nights of sitz baths should ease the itch, if yours is home treatable, Dr. Panter says.

Abstain for the duration. Don't have sexual intercourse until your itching has cleared up, Dr. Panter says. If the organism that set up its itchy housekeeping in your vagina was transmitted by your partner, there's no sense in re-exposing yourself to trouble. Take a few days to show love in other ways, he suggests.

Consider the condom. Condoms provide wonderful protection against both unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease. If condom use always seems to be followed by a bout of vaginal itching, however, it's possible that an allergy to the condom's latex rubber, powder coating or lubricant could be the problem.

Try this simple home patch test from Bruce Katz, M.D., a dermatologist and assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City. Tape an inner-side piece cut from a fresh condom to one arm, and an outer-side piece to the other arm. Leave both pieces in place for 48 hours, and keep the areas dry. If both arms react, you're allergic to the rubber. If only the arm with the inside of the condom taped to it gets itchy or rashy, you're allergic to the powder. If only the arm with the outside piece reacts, you're allergic to the lubricant.

Does this mean you should avoid using condoms? Absolutely not, says Dr. Katz. Their role in reducing infection risk is too critical. Instead, have your partner use two鈥攍ambskin over latex if you are allergic to rubber, or reverse the order if the powder is the problem. Why not just switch to lambskin? Lambskin on its own can't protect against some organisms, including the virus that causes AIDS. Dr. Katz says a nonlatex condom should be on the market shortly, which will solve the problem entirely.

Ask your doctor. You'll need your doctor's help to determine which type of infection is causing your itching. If you've been diagnosed with yeast infections in the past, and are very familiar with the specific symptoms, call your doctor for a prescription, recommends R. Don Gambrell, Jr., M.D., clinical professor of endocrinology and obstetrics and gynecology at the Medical College of Georgia Hospital and Clinics in Augusta. Your doctor will prescribe antifungal medications such as Vagistat, Nystatin or Monistat.

Trichomoniasis is treated with the prescription antibiotic Flagyl. Bacterial infections call for antibacterial agents鈥攅ither sulfa drugs or, if you're allergic to sulfa, with Betadine antiseptic, an over-the-counter product, says Dr. Gambrell.

';And be sure to have your doctor test you for the human papilloma virus (HPV),'; recommends Jessica L. Thomasson, M.D., a gynecologist at Columbia Medical Center in Milwaukee. This virus, which causes genital warts, is an important and frequently overlooked cause of vaginal itching, she says.

Get help for menopause symptoms. If you're approaching menopause, ask your doctor about treatments for itching caused by changes that are taking place in the vagina. Hormone replacement therapy is an option, but you should also ask about prescription hormonal creams for the vagina.

Bag the douche and powder. Douching not only won't help to relieve itching or vaginitis, it may be dangerous, says David Eschenbach, M.D., professor and chief of the Division of Gynecology at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. Douching may drive infectious material up through the cervix and cause pelvic inflammatory disease, he says.

The use of talcum powder or cornstarch is questionable, too, Dr. Eschenbach says. Over time, the tiny particles may collect near the ovaries and increase ovarian cancer risk.

I have a jock itch, does it mix with either vaseline, baby powder or bactrician zinc anti ointment cream?

2009-12-31T01:21:00.001-08:00

i went to a doctor about the groin irritated skin and he prescribed bactrician zinc ointment or something

after a week of use it went away but then my scrotum started itching and it too had irritated skin that hurts whenever i sweat, so it stings

people have recommended baby powder to keep the area dry, and vaseline to moisutirize the area in case it is dry skin

my question is that, which one should i use, can i use both, and should i still use the bacitrician zinc ointment even though its past a weeks a time since my doctor told me to stop using it?I have a jock itch, does it mix with either vaseline, baby powder or bactrician zinc anti ointment cream?
don't put Vaseline on it.get a powder for jock itch,or anti fungal spray.I have a jock itch, does it mix with either vaseline, baby powder or bactrician zinc anti ointment cream?
Go back to what the doc had you use. Never use vaseline on any kind of rash. It does not moisturize, but is rather like putting a coating of thick oil on the rash and it will cause severe itching. Avoid powder as well because it can irritate the area even more. Do not use any kind of moisturizer on jock itch. It will only make things worse. Use what the doc gave you. That's the best and smartest way to go.
You need antifungal cream. You should be able to buy from pharmacy
I used to work construction and frequently had this problem. Baby powder worked everytime. I think Vaseline actually makes the problem worse because it holds in moisture.
yeah go get some lamisil jock itch creme the stuff will get rid of the itch and in a couple days it should stop burning when you sweat... i had the same problem and i tried using baby powder but honestly it burned when i put it on, and although it was dry it didn't help.
its from not washing yourself %26gt;_%26gt; hope it falls off
You mix powder with vaseline and you are going to have a mess. You need to go back to your doc and get something stronger, like a fungicide.

Or you could wear a maxi pad. Just kidding.

I have eggzuma and the cream hurts the eggzuma whont stop iching it been itching all night what should i do?

2009-12-26T03:46:00.001-08:00

i keep iching it i cant stop the cream hurts when i put it on what shuold i do?I have eggzuma and the cream hurts the eggzuma whont stop iching it been itching all night what should i do?
i had it and now im ok

first of all you need to go for a checkup with a doctor

then u can get a right drug for ur allergy (eczema is a kind of allergy)

i recommand u a book

here is the link in amazon.com

http://www.amazon.com/Med-Express-Overco鈥?/a>

i read this book and it was helpfull....

also a kind of drugs like ';loratadin'; or ';kelmastin'; can give help to u but the most usefull and very good treatment is using injections such az teriamsinolon groups once a year..im under this treatment and thats cool

but first consoult with ur doctorI have eggzuma and the cream hurts the eggzuma whont stop iching it been itching all night what should i do?
i also have exima on my arms well i showed it to the doctor or use the benadryl cream it worked. :D
I don't know if you are using your prescribed cream to help eczema or if you are using an itch cream. I suggest using a cream to help stop the itch. They make spray to stop the itch too.
eggzuma haha.
Sarna you can get it at a pharmacy. It's the only thing we found to stop the itching for our 5 year old grand daughter. It doesn't burn going on either! A little expensive, but it works. Also, cold/wet compresses work short term too.
Eggzuma sounds really bad...maybe you mean eczema.
that happened to me when i was younger turned out that i was alergic to the cream...i then got steroid cream and that heeled it straight away and i have'nt had it since but it has to be prescribed by the doctor so i would advise you to go there:)
I used to have egzema as well, and I suggest going to the dermatologist for it. They will give you a cream to help it go away. Wear long sleeves and pants to keep yourself from itching it as well.
learn to spell
It is eczema.
I used to have eczima but i grew out of it but i used to use aqueous cream you could get a big tube of it also i never done this but apparently it works - you can have a hot bath with oats in. I hope you get betta
ezcema shouldn't be scratched lightly tap it if you want but it only makes it worse, the cream will sting but thats a good sign
I Really Don't Know Why . I Have It To I Usually Put Vaseline On Mine...
this is weird but carmex worked on mine.
Accupuntue is helping my psoriasis. Weird but results are good
It is itching because there is no cream that treats eggzuma. It is eczema, don't you wish you didn't drop out of high school.
I had eczema several years ago and like you had problems with the cream the dr gave me. I finally got some old fashion udder balm (found at Wal Mart or a farm store) and used it. It really helped with the irritation. It comes in a green tin.
Eczema can drive you nuts, been there done that. What has worked wonderful for me over the years is a creme called Hydrocortisone Cream 1% and available in any drugstore. Buy the generic version (store brand) also with ';Plus 12 Moisturizers'; at a Rite Aid store brand, its less expensive.

Put a dab on the spot as soon as you dry off from a shower and rub it in. Your skin is much more pliable and soft after a shower. Also put it on just before you go to bed at night.

3 days and you'll start to see it heal. If you use it consistantly and it does not go away then its time to see a Dermatologist. (skin doctor)

PS Do NOT buy any soap products or any bath soaking products, they will dry out your skin and make it worse.
You should go to a doctor so you can advice on what to do, and find a better cream that doesn't hurt
I have it too....its summer so if the suns out you should be to as it helps clear it up. Try and not scratch it and if you NEED to then try and rub it or not stick your nails to far in. Moursterise every night with a non scented mosteriser. It will be soore at first but after about 10days it will help
Wear clothes that keep you 4rm stracthing it go to cvs or where ever and buy avenno no itch cream its n a blue ans cream colored tube if you start useing that it should help your itch also buy the avenno soap bar the box should be around the same color as the tube if the avenno products don't work try cepetcul I think thsts how u spell it but the jar is lyk a shinny light tan color and the label is light green and blue there products also work good but may bry out your skin so don't over use
i also, honestly have exema. Do you have prescription cream? You should go to a dermatologist. It will burn at first but it will heal, you have to restrain yourself
you scratch it...
First of all STOP scratching - or the itch-scratch cycle will not stop (yes there really is such a thing!)

make sure your cream is steroid based - like hyderm or betaderm (do not use on face) at at least 1% hydrocortisone.

It will take a couple days for that to start working on the eczema after you STOP scratching so you can combat the itch in the meantime by using benadryl tabs - or the generic and less expensive pills called diphenhydramine.

All available OTC

Good Luck!
Hahahah EGGZUMA. Typical spelling mistake.

Maybe your using the wrong cream. Sometimes when you put the cream it itches a lot more then it all goes away after a while. that happens with me sometimes.
Maybe when you went to the doctor to complain about eggzuma, he thought you meant eczema, and gave you the wrong cream. Call him and demand eggzuma cream.
my name is michelle and i also have eczema..lol...you should put on the cream and to cool off the area, put on baby powder...or any other type of powder..
Get some muslin or something similar and wrap a couple of handfuls of porridge oats in the muslin. Run a bath with the bag of oats under the water. Have a bath :)

The oats are excellent for nourishing and moisturising the skin.
First of all, it's spelled eczema. You don't say what kind of creme you're using. Lanacort, or some kind of cortisone creme helps and doesn't hurt. What hurts is the open sores that have been scratched. Try using Antibiotic ointment at bed time and cover it, then use the creme in the morning The ointment will help heal the sores. I've gotten eczema on my hands. Anytime I handle tomatoes (except Roma's) I get it.
whatever you do, don't scratch it

its going to itch, just try to ignore it. Put the cream on, but when your not using it put aloe vera gel on you hands, some people say it sooths it. Peppermint oil works too.

Can Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1% cream be used to relieve spider bite itching?

2009-12-26T03:46:00.000-08:00

About a year ago, I had an itchy rash and my doctor prescribed this cream to treat the itching.

I recently got a bunch of spider /insect bites that itch horribly.

Could the cream work to prevent this type of itching?

If not, what do you recommend I use?

Any home remedies?

Thank you very much!Can Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1% cream be used to relieve spider bite itching?
I had this at home for my eczema, husband got bitten by spider, it was all red, itchy and nasty, so we put it on it. It got even worse. I would suggest just plain hydrocortisone cream. By the way, when this happened, we went to the doc, and found out that most spider bites, even from non-poisonous, get really infected. Keep a watch on it. If it gets bigger or you see streaking. Go to the doc right away.

Oh...and never tried this...but supposedly a wet tea bag helps. Tannic acid and all that.

If i will remove my armpit's hair with veet hair removal cream do you think they will still itch?

2009-12-26T03:45:00.003-08:00

I am 13 years old boy and I have removed my armpit's hair by using a razor they are causing itchness now.If i will use a veet hair removal cream will it help?will it able to remove them without ithcyness?please help me.If i will remove my armpit's hair with veet hair removal cream do you think they will still itch?
We are male we are hairy just cope okIf i will remove my armpit's hair with veet hair removal cream do you think they will still itch?
Yes..., it'll itch. But..., why you must shaving you hair in armpit?? That's the symbol of man.
it wont even work... veet is designed for delicate hair that comes off easily... armpit hair is not delicate...

Enjoy puberty little dude!
why in the world are you shaving your armpits?! eek. you're a guy...that is not a 'guy' kinda thing to do. Veet makes me itch regardless, but i have sensitive skin. you will probably still itch a little as hair regrows. razors hack the hair off causing the ends to be blunt and 'scruffy'. that's why hair that you don't shave is soft and hair that you do shave (face, legs, pits, etc) is stubbly. the regrowth from Veet is less harsh but the chemicals could cause you to itch anyway. you can get Dove deoderant (unscented) if you have sensitive pits. i knew a guy once that used it. up to you. but i'd maybe think about letting puberty take it's course. there is nothing weirder to me than guys without leg hair or armpit hair..unless they're like 90 years old. good luck in any case.
first you are quite young for all this.but still you want it,please donno use hair removal cream.if you use them you would end up with dark and ugly armpit.
dont do that male are hairy only girls likes that
Wax it thats the best possible way

bt 1st of all ur way too YOUNG for all this and men usually have hairs and if at all u need them try buying a women shaver which is more softer than men shaver and use them each day

the best way is to apply mehindi powder over that part and it will never ever grow again

do all this with extreme caution and be ready to have the side effects
if shaving cause u itchiness, why not try waxing?
u should wax
Before using any cream, apply a sampe and see if it itches. Then if OK go ahead.

I have just bought some Canestan AF cream, it says it treats athletes foot and JOCK ITCH, what is that.?

2009-12-26T03:45:00.001-08:00

I was told to get some for psoriasis of the groin, will this do me any harm being so close to such a delicate place.I have just bought some Canestan AF cream, it says it treats athletes foot and JOCK ITCH, what is that.?
The ';AF'; in this stands for ';antifungal'; which is why this treats both athlete's foot and jock itch, both of which are fungus infections in different places. Since this brand is listed for use in both areas, it should not be a problem with the more delicate areas. (Some athlete's foot creams and preparations might be too harsh to use in the genital area, but this one is labelled for both.)

The doctor may think your psoriasis is complicated with a bit of this fungal infection or may be trying to prevent one. Perhaps there are even studies showing that an antifungal might help with psoriasis, which is not normally considered an infectious process. But the psoriasis lesion and the itching and scratching increase the risk of getting infections.

The groin is also a moist area, and likely sweaty feet, this is a good environment for yeast and other funguses to grow. Keeping this area dry can help reduce the risk.I have just bought some Canestan AF cream, it says it treats athletes foot and JOCK ITCH, what is that.?
put some on
First of all, let me reassure you that rubbing Canestan AF (an anti-fungal cream) into your groin will do you no harm whatsoever.

Athletes foot is tinea pedis, Jock itch (an American term for fungal infection of the groin) is tinea cruris. As you can see from the first part of their names, they are related conditions ... both fungal infections. (They like moist areas of the body.)
In UK we put it up our (female parts) so no wont do you any harm

Jock Itch LMAO so American..........
It will be perfect for such a delicate area
its an anti fungal cream jock itch is thrush as it atheletes foot, it wont really do a lot for you psoriasis to be honest, a bit of e45 cream should do the trick

i had a severe sunburn on the 4th of july...it peeled and went away...2 weeks later i started with the intense itch.nothing helps.i have my kids scratch my back with a hair brush its so bad. my cousin said the same thing happened to her after getting a bad burn from the tanning booth...her doctor said there is nothing to do ,that the itch is nerve endings growing back. did anyone ever hear of that? any suggestions for me? thank youI have such an intense itch on my back.no anti-itch creams or lotions work. can anyone help?
I would try Gold Bond products. They have a regular and extra-strength lotion, and it also comes in powder form. Itching can literally drive you crazy. The Gold Bond works really well for me. Give it a try.I have such an intense itch on my back.no anti-itch creams or lotions work. can anyone help?
Your doctor is correct. Because you probably had a 1st degree burn. This deep of a burn would burn the nerve endings. You might try some Benadryl to possible help with the itching.

My testicles itch like mad went to docs had tests and it wasnt fungus i am using a cream 1nce a day if idont t

2009-12-26T03:44:00.003-08:00

It could result from dry skin, a rash/irritation caused by fabrics or soaps, improper cleaning or any number of sources including various infections or infestations.

Try cleaning thoroughly daily with warm water and a mild soap then rinse off every bit of soap residue before drying well. also, after any physical activity that might produce sweat, shower and clean well even if it means 2 or more showers a day. If th eskin feels dry, feel free to apply a scent free moisturizer.

Also, either go commando or be vary careful in your selection of laundry detergent and make sure all clothing is well rinsed before drying. And to top it off, beware of certain man-made fabrics when choosing underwear; nylon, polyester and even lycra can cause allergic reactions in some people.

Of course is if it's pubic lice or other little critters invading your space they would need to be removed in order to get relief. While these shoudl be visible and yoru doctro shoudl have seen them, he may have missed if he wasn't looking for them. If you see anything, there are ointments specifically for them and some require special laundry detergents or laundry additives to rid all your bedding and clothing of them. And as weird as it may seem, sometimes a good close shave is beneficial in getting rid of them.

I'd check yoruself out and see if anythign obvious presents itself. If nothing, give th ecurrent ointment a couple weeks and call the doctor back if it doesn't do the trick.My testicles itch like mad went to docs had tests and it wasnt fungus i am using a cream 1nce a day if idont t

If you really cannot squeeze any cream out the tube try slapping the affected part, really sharply. this does sometimes work with me..worth a try. Try any thing to moisturise it, its often the dryness that causes the itch, avoid perfumed moisturisers. If you have any oats in the house mix some up with a little hot water, let it ';brew'; then either bathe your eczema with the milky fluid or drain the oats and apply like a poultice (old socks are great for holding it in place) Or even do both. Oats are very soothing.I ran out of the cream for my eczema. Any ideas how to stop the itching?
have you tried any lanacaine? Maybe that will help with the itching

I am having an allergic reaction to my sutures-any remedies besides benedryl cream that can relieve this itch?

2009-12-26T03:43:00.002-08:00

I had a surgery on my stomach a week ago. The inside stiches-turns out I am allergic to them. I have 3 places with stitches and they itch soo bad plus I have hives on my stomach and tongue! I have been putting benedryl cream on them for 2 days and taking benedryl pills at night but the only relief I get is from icing them non stop. Has anyone gone through this and know how to help relieve this itching! Help!! and yes, I have seen the Dr today and he confirmed its the sutures and suggested the beneydrl cream, however it isn't relieving the massive itching and red swollen incisions. I am looking for maybe a home remedy or something someone tried that was effective for relieving the itching until they dissolve and this nasty thing goes away. Any advice is appreciated. Thank youI am having an allergic reaction to my sutures-any remedies besides benedryl cream that can relieve this itch?
Benedryl is a topical anesthetic. The other thing you can get without a prescription is a cream containing a little hydrocortisone. This is a steroid. It has a different action from an anesthetic. So in theory you can try both.

Because you have hives, a more severe reaction to an allergen, your doctor is probably hesitating to prescribe a strong steroid medication, as some people are allergic to them. (That would be just your luck.)

Anything that will irritate the nerves actually works because the sensors for itching are the same as the ones for pain. If the incision is already irritated, alcohol will cause stinging, which is better than itching. Witch hazel is also used in my part of the world.

Ice reduces the sensitivity of the nerves. The problem with ice is that it also reduces the blood flow, which slows down the healing. It's OK for poison ivy, less OK for incisions.

You can try a regular oral antihistamine. (Benadryl oral is one of them, and it contains different chemicals depending on whether you are in the US or UK). Most of them make you sleepy, so take it at bedtime. If this one isn't working, there are others. We are not trying to second-guess your doctor, though.

Some itching and swelling is part of healing, even without allergy. Diverting your attention is the best way to deal with it. Hold an ice cube in your hand and concentrate on how it feels. Now put it down and concentrate on how it FELT. What you are doing is redirecting your attention. You have to keep working at it. Remember, it is your brain that is relaying the sensation of itching.

That's my bag of tricks! Good luck!
