Deep sense of itch

i have psoriasis and its not so severe but i get feeling to itch the places where its red. it gives a feeling of mosquito bite. is there any home remedy or medicine to reduce this problem. I am already consulting a doctor and he has given me ointment (Halobet s). This works good but still itching don't go away....

I would be wary of anything that doesn't specify the ingredients in the formula. Old Ayurvedic medicine indeed! Do yourself a favor and go to a trained dermatologists, not some old whack who has "discovered" a "cure" through "herbs". That is ********.

Thanks.

I consulted Ayurvedic Doc. in Mumbai, India  Visited the hospital and the doc from Ayurvedic Research Center hospital advised me psoraban liquid to drink and parafinn oil to apply on red spots. These two medicines are ayurvedic medicines and are working fine. the red spots are drying out and the itch is reduced.

will be visiting the hospital after 15 days.

Hello,
To treat the severe itching in psoriasis,take non sedating antihistamines like Claritin or Zyrtec,apply ice packs and take oatmeal baths.Also you can use Gold Bond Medicated Anti-Itch Cream and Aveeno Overnight Itch Relief (with oatmeal) for the itch relief.If still the condition persist then topical steroids and anesthetics may be needed but pls consult a dermatologist for that.
I hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
