Hello Goldie1959 and thanks for the post

I am sorry to hear you have jaundice and are struggling to manage the itch.

Do let your doctors know so they can also assess the medications you may be on to try and help with this.

We have some information about dealing with itching on our webpages. It includes, causes, treatment and tips so do take a look.

What works for one person may look different for another so we can't recommend any one product that will definitely help i'm afraid. Generally speaking taking regular warm showers using a non soap and non perfumed moisturising liquid (some can be prescribed by your doctor) can help. Applying a non coloured and non perfumed moisturiser after showering is recommended and wearing  and sleeping in cotton, cool clothing/bedding. 

I hope this helps and the itching improves soon for you.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Best wishes,

Naomi
