The thing to do is get some shampoo that contains tar. something like Nutragena T. Shampoo everyday with that and it should clear it up.

You should try to find our what caused the rash. But for immediate relief, use calamine lotion, and have a anit histamine. If it does not settle you should see your doctor.\n\nGood luck

Go to any drug store and get yeast infection medication, they have it in one day three day or seven day, the faster the more expensive, but the one day never worked for me, i always get the three day.... fallow the directions and you will be good to go, get the combo pack that has the medicine and the anti itch cream in the pack, it helps get rid of the itchy scrathies till the medicine has kicked in all the way ;)

I itch all the time. And I've scratched until it bled, and keep scratching after that. It's inside and scratching doesn't really help. I sympathize because itching makes life miserable.\n\nIf the itch is caused from something on the top of the skin (bug bite, irritation, etc.) I use a product call Itch-X. It's the best product for itching I've ever found. If you've already scratched it a bit raw, then it burns and stings like crazy when you put it on, then the itching, burning, stinging stops immediately. Ahhhhh! It's the best product I've ever found. I find it at Walgreens, or you can look it up on the internet and see where they sell it in your area.\n\nIf it itches under the skin and a topical wouldn't help, put an ice pack on it. The cold will stop the itching. I've never had it to fail. Heat will make it itch more, and ice will stop it.\n\nGood luck.

Try cleaning them. The bacteria down there will cause them to itch.\nIf you do clean them,\nTry changing your soap - and rinse really well. \nIf those don't work, you may have Jock-Itch. Get a spray or powder at the store.\nCheck the surface of the skin. If their are any welt or bumps you may be allergic to something, or (yipes) a STD.\nIf you can't change it within 24 hours - see your doctor.....

Saying "don't worry about it" is accurate, but not so helpful.\n\n1- Check with a dermatologist to make sure that you are using the best treatment for the itching and the pimples.  A cortisone might help the itching to be less.\n\n2- Can you develop other strategies for learning and collaborating, such as phone or email?  If you have a good rapport with clients and coworkers over the phone or email, you will be less anxious and scratch less when you interact with them face to face.

There are so many over the counter remedies that I hesitate to tell you my old fashioned one...my grandmother used to crush a pansie blossom between her fingers and rub it on a poison ivy spot.  About half the time it would go away.  There is a product called "dermarest" poison ivy mousse that is wonderful for not only controlling the itching but also drying the site up.  It is over the counter and available at most pharmacies.

Boy, do I ever have a lot of experience with this!!!  There is a cream at the drug store called Zanfel.  (CVS has a generic brand of it too)  It is expensive, about 30 bucks, but it will take the itch 100% away!  It is a gritty creme that you rub into the poison oak rash until all the itch is gone.  It works by extracting the Urishol (which is the oil that makes you itch) from your skin.  At times I have had to do a second treatment, but there is a good amount in the tube you buy.  I STRONGLY suggest you get this stuff, it will make life a lot easier!\n\nOther than that, you just wash well, don't scratch, and if it oozes, just wash often, don't put any bandaids or stuff like that on it cause it will make it spread.  Anywhere the urishol touches can develop a rash.  Calamine lotion helps dry it, and I have had people tell me that oatmeal baths help although I have never recieved any relief from it.  \n\nGood luck.\nMel

It could be an allergic reaction.  Try some hydrocrodisone cream to help with the inflammation.  If it doesn't reduce the redness and the itching, you may want to go to a dermatologist and see if it's something you need to have looked at.  Have you ever had eczema?

I am still working on this one myself- aveno oat meal baths, reguarly use a healing mosturizer (I like curel ultra healing extra strength skin hydrator) the key is to put it on before the itching starts- Ive been told not to use cortizone too much because it thins the skin- benadryl gel can be helpful- store it in the fridge so that its cold when it goes on- sarna anti-itch cream SOMETIMES helps- I also find it helpful sometimes to either apply an ice pack or wrap it in an ace bandage- Ive also been told to "pat dry" when getting out of shower/bath- avoid scratching at all costs- BELIEVE ME I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT THIS IS!!

I would recommend 2 products:\n\n1. Selenium Sulfide Shampoo (example: Selsun Blue and others) or Coal Tar Shampoo (example: Neutrogena T-Gel and others)\n\n2: Scalpicin anti itch solution as needed for itching.

Take a bath in oatmeal soap it helps soothe the itching and calms the skin irritation.

Ask a pharmacist.  They can give you some very good suggestions until you can see your doctor.  Calamine lotion might work.

If it happens all the time, then I suggest you go to your doctor to find out the cause.  It may be an allergy to something, or it may be something different.  They will also be able to recommend the BEST type of cream for your individual problem.\n\nIn the mean time,  switch to using soap-free products - if you ask your chemist they will be able to recommend some good ones.  Some sort of cortozone cream should help to kill the itch as well.  Your chemist should be able to recommend an over the counter one too.

it is one of the best things you can use, honestly. a dab of it on the bites about every day i would think would help decrease the itching until it finally goes away

Try hydrocortezone or an antihistamine like benadryl
