I had this problem for a long time. I did a lot of tests and took so many drugs. I was always on piriton. I don't really know when it stopped. I just noticed one day I was not itching anymore. I wrote down all the new things I ate / did about the time it stopped and I continued with them. You can also try this. |

queenpin: It is called AQUAGENIC PRURITIS, An itchy response to bathing with water and aggravated by abrasive sponges on the body or failure to totally wash off soap from the body due to its caustic properties. Google the name for further elucidation Thanks |

Whao I thought I'm the only with weird condition. The way I've managed mine are.... 1. Ensure the bathroom and room is clean b4 shower as the irritation from seeing the dirty surroundings aggravates the condition. 2. Don't use sponges when shower after being very sweaty, afternoon shower, evening shower etc 3. Find soap that have moisturiser. 4. Always wear a clean cotton after shower. 5. Get a soft sponge. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Use that stone that is recommended for scrubbing the sole of the foot to scrub the whole of your body so that the stuck dirt on your skin can be peeled off. Thereafter make sure you apply atleast a cap of Z Germicide (Izal) into small bucket of water whenever you want to bathe, making sure that the amount of water will be overpowered by the germicide so that all the infectious micro-organisms in the water can die. Stir the water vigorously and then leave it for twenty minutes before you use it for bathing. Make sure you don't drink bore hole water, drink only treated sachet or bottled water. I'm experienced and I know what I'm saying. The ailment is called AQUAGENIC PRURITUS. I was a victim of this for donkey years, after all money spent and the run arounds, I discovered the problem is embeded in the water that we use in everyday life. I found out that it is not a disease, it is natural and the only cure to this ailment is MANAGEMENT. 3 Likes |

It happens to me too. But in my own case, it only happens when I skip or do not use sponge to take my bath. When next I take my bath, it is a big problem. So make sure you take your bath properly with a sponge. Any soap works for me but I must use sponge or else I will itch badly when next I take my bath. 1 Like |

I think I have a different opinion. Op, are you vulnerable to malaria? If yes, always treat it immediately you feel the symptoms cos acute malaria can lead to such itching when water reacts with the soda that is in bathing soap. Am writing from experience. |

What do you use to bath with? The sponge, the soap, the shower gel? Elimante those and see if it makes a difference starting with the soap/shower gel. |
Re: Itching After Bathing - I Need Help... by Xmen149(m): 5:44pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
tan your sponge and towel after each bath(u can have two,use and tan,while u use the second one next) make sure you dnt use if damp. Use chlorinated or boiled water (even some water direct from well or borehole still have some harmful elements some delicate skins react to),and detol. change your soap to much simpler one (some chemical in some soap can finish u before you even finish bathing). Ask of medical assistance from a doctor if all the above does not work |

Stop using sponge for some days. You can bath like twice with soap for some days. After some days, get this hand like sponge. Its very soft. It's made in form of glove dt u can wear. It doesnt cause itching. It has happened to me. Didnt use sponge for years until someone said I shld buy that sponge and that is what have been using. Remember to scrub gently |

one of the causes of itching after bath is rheumatism which in turn causes swelling when scratched but gradually ddissappers after a while, some of this itching can also be caused by allergies, but the best way to calm it down is to take anti- histamine drugs, mostly at night. |
Re: Itching After Bathing - I Need Help... by joyfit: 6:03pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Have been experiencing the same since 1997 not until 2014 that I discovered some remedies by myself but to cut the story short I can give u 99% assurance if u can take this steps, just stop the following for 3 days (stop using sugar, milk, soft drinks, soup that is too sweet, okra soup) that are what I usually run away for, if I take any of it for 2 day consecutively the scratching will come back. But to my surprise nobody tell me this and I cant even say the reason why all these cause body scratching after talking my birth. |

Well, polycythemia rubra Vera (too much red blood cell) can also cause it especially after hot bath. When you do a FBC it might show a PCV of more than 50 percent. |
Re: Itching After Bathing - I Need Help... by doctore212(m): 6:06pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Also it might just be due to allergy |
