Causes of aches and aches

Let's consider, why acne the body itches. The reasons for this may be different:

• Hormonal disbalance. Imbalance can be caused by puberty, pregnancy or menopause. The body, hands, fingers, etc. are covered with pimples because the production of the hormone androgen has increased.
• Weakened immunity. The skin of any person is the residence of various bacteria. A strong organism can easily cope with them, but the presence of a disease easily leads to the appearance of large and small red pimples, causing itching and pain.
• Wrong food or any bad habit. Toxins and slags in excess can appear externally on the body in the form of acne prone on the lower back, legs, or even the palms.
• Allergic reaction. Such small pimples on the body are itching most often in children, but adults are no exception.

Therapy of skin rashes

Crawling acne on the body can begin to be treated only after an accurate diagnosis has been determined.

Is the cause of the rash hidden in any infection? Hence, all therapeutic actions should be directed to its elimination. You can stop the inflammatory process on the skin with an antiseptic agent of local action.

To treat an allergic reaction, it is necessary to use antihistamines, which are taken orally, and to eliminate skin irritation, an anti-inflammatory ointment with antihistamine action is suitable. With an itch mite (demodex), an antiscabic ointment will cope, and with a fungal infection, a medicine with the corresponding effect.

When choosing local medications, one should pay attention to those that possess antipruritic and cooling properties.

With extreme caution, one should approach the treatment of rashes that appear on the face. Almost every local medication dries the skin drastically, so the period of active therapy should be combined with the use of some gentle softening agent, for example, a baby cream.

Traditional medicine can also help in the fight against papules.

It is possible to dry and restore the surface of the skin with the help of trays and wipes infused with calendula, chamomile, string and oak bark. A cucumber juice or diluted aloe juice can speed up the process of skin regeneration.
