- Hi I have. very itch skin and have tried a lot of creams,,also my tummy is very big I am waiting for a drain ,I really need a spray Is there any one to advise me
Hi there MOLPEB
I am sorry to hear about your situation and the discomfort you are in at the moment with this constant itch.
Do let your doctor know about the itch and how none of the creams you have tried are helping so they can also best advise you to help manage this.
Unfortunately as there are many causes for itchy skin there isn't always a simple solution to ease this. Whilst applying or spraying cream onto the skin can sometimes help soothe the area it may not treat the cause of the itch.
Depending on what is causing your itch you may also need medication or other treatment alongside creams to get on top of this. As I say do speak to your doctor about this when you can.
In the meantime applying cold pack to any particular itchy areas may help, try and shower rather than bathe in warm ( not hot water) when needed and wearing loose and breathable fabrics such as cotton can also help.
There is more tips to cope with itching on the website that may be useful to take a look at.
I hope you get the drain soon and any other treatment needed to feel better in yourself.
Do get back in touch if you want to or if you prefer give us a call on 0808 800 4040, we're here weekdays 9-5.
Take care
