Body itching after taking your bath can not
only be annoying, but it can be embarrassing
as well. Pruritus is the medical name for
itching, and this can leave scars or damage
on your skin. This itching can occur all over
the body or on a particular part of the body
especially the laps and legs. This article will
help you to prevent and eliminate the itch on
your skin naturally.
There are so many reasons why you have
itches right after you finish taking your bath.
1. Frequently changing your soaps and
shampoos.
Changing of your toiletries occasionally can
be bad for your skin, especially sensitive
ones. The chemical ingredients of these
products can irritate ones skin.
2. Taking hot showers.
Taking your bath with hot water can cause
the skin dry excessively and this can lead
itchy skin after taking bath.
3. Bathing with hard water.
This is one of the major causes of skin
irritation after a shower. Bathing with hard
water may leave a thin layer of soap on your
skin and this causes itching. The calcium in
hard water can also trigger dryness and
itching.
4. Allergic reaction.
Body contact with some certain allergies
may trigger itching on the skin which may
from a few minutes up to a few hours.
These allergies may be triggered off by
some certain chemicals contained in your
towels, bathing sponge or your bed sheets.
5. Chemical irritants.
A chemical derived from coconut called
sodium lauryl sulfate, which is used in
manufacturing soaps and shampoos can
also initiate itching and rashes. This sodium
lauryl sulphate serves as a foaming
ingredient which makes up a lather.
6. Improper or poor diet.
A poor diet is another reason you may be
having itchy sensation. Lack of nutritional
substances that are necessary for keeping
the skin moist could be the reason you are
having itching sensation on your body after
shower.
7. Frequent bath.
Taking shower regularly may wash of the
natural oils contained in your body that helps
in protecting the body from harsh
environment.
