Tips to relieve itching

Summer is the season when mosquitoes are prevalent, and you can get bitten if you are not careful. Skin itching is the most unbearable. The most common way we deal with it is by spraying floral water or some mosquito repellent spray. So what should you do if you get bitten? You can also use toilet water and some herbal ointments. You can also soak the itchy area in salt water. Garlic, aloe vera leaf juice, ammonia water, etc. can all be used. Eat more alkaline foods and light meals on a daily basis.

Tips:

1. Apply Tiger Balm to provide local anesthesia and soothe nerves, alleviating the itching sensation.

2. Apply or soak the itchy area with salt water, which can soften the swelling and effectively relieve itching.

3. At home, you can apply strong soap to quickly relieve itching, or dip soap in water and apply it to the red and swollen areas. The reason is that soap is the sodium salt of higher fatty acids. The sodium salt of this fatty acid is alkaline after hydrolysis, and can be neutralized with formic acid to quickly eliminate pain and itching.

Tips:

Only female mosquitoes actively suck human blood in order to obtain the protein in the blood to nourish their ovaries. The saliva of female mosquitoes secretes an organic acid similar to an anticoagulant, which prevents the blood from clotting. However, the organic acid that remains on human skin is a foreign substance, and some people will experience allergic reactions, such as itching and swelling.
