how to cure skin allergy at home - #23510
I am dealing with this really annoying skin allergy and need tips on how to cure skin allergy at home. I’ve been breaking out in these red, itchy bumps on my arms and legs for a couple weeks now. At first, I thought it was just dry skin from the winter, but then it got worse after I tried a new soap, which I think might’ve triggered it. Ugh. I’ve been to the doctor, and they prescribed some cream, but it’s like I'm constantly itching, and the cream is only helping a bit. I’ve read some things online about how to cure skin allergy at home, like using oatmeal baths or aloe vera, but I kinda worry that it might not be enough. I mean, doesn’t it always feel like home remedies are hit or miss? Plus, do any of these work for really itchy skin? One friend swears by coconut oil, while another says honey is the secret, but honestly, I don’t know where to start. I tried drinking more water too, and keeping my skin moisturized, but still no luck. Anyone here ever had a skin allergy and found out how to cure skin allergy at home? What actually helped for you? I feel desperate since I just want to wear short sleeves again without feeling like a walking itch!
