Home remedies for itching

Itching can be caused due to dryness of the skin, unfavorable medication, sunburn or infectious diseases. Try the following natural cure for itching to cure it completely.

Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated.




Apply the oils of cod liver, vitamin E and wheat germ and Aloe Vera gel for treating itching all over your body.

Add 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar and soak in the bath tub for at least half an hour regularly.

Apply the solution of baking soda or a weak carbolic acid lotion all over your body.


You can add this to your bath water. It acts as a very effective home remedy in relieving itching and soothing the irritated skin.

Applying cold compresses to the skin or taking bath from very cold water might also relive itching. Use this cold therapy only if you can bear the cold.

Add boiling water to 1 tsp of the dried leaves of nettle and let it steep for 10 to 15 minutes. Strain and drink this tea 2 times a day.

A poultice made from fresh chickweed is another alternative cure for itching. Soak a handful in water, let it cool and apply it on your body when it softens.
