Skin itching is so uncomfortable. Four traditional Chinese medicine internal and external methods to fight it

●Suitable for young children

Coconut oil is a safe and reliable choice, especially for infants and young children. Children often scratch their skin when it itches, and even put their hands in their mouths. If you apply non-natural medicines, there may be a risk of accidental ingestion. But coconut oil will not affect health even if it is accidentally ingested.

Therefore, for children under two years old, if parents report itchy skin problems, I usually recommend coconut oil. Experience has shown that coconut oil is particularly effective in this regard.

I hope this experience can help families in need. If you are troubled by itchy skin, you might as well try coconut oil. The effect is worth looking forward to.

In addition, studies have found that lauric acid, the main component of coconut oil, has antibacterial effects. For patients with atopic dermatitis, applying coconut oil can not only moisturize but also prevent Staphylococcus aureus infection.

Unique case sharing: Seven or eight years of psoriasis was cured

During my clinical treatment, I once encountered a special case of psoriasis. Psoriasis is considered a difficult disease to cure by Western medicine because it is a physical problem. External medications can only temporarily relieve symptoms and are difficult to cure. Similarly, Chinese medicine also faces challenges in treating psoriasis.

When this patient came to see me, his main complaint was not skin problems, but sleep disorders caused by nasal congestion. His nasal congestion was very severe, affecting his sleep at night, causing him to have many dreams and shallow sleep, and still feel tired in the morning. This situation has lasted for seven or eight years, and he has seen many dermatologists during this period, but the symptoms have not improved.

When treating this case, I did not start with the skin disease directly, but with the patient’s nasal congestion. Nasal congestion leads to poor sleep quality, which in turn affects the repair function of the immune system. Therefore, my treatment idea is to clear the nasal congestion first, improve sleep, thereby enhancing immunity and accelerating the recovery of skin diseases.

After the treatment started, the patient took nasal medication for two weeks, and his nasal congestion was significantly improved, and his sleep quality also improved. Later, he found that his skin began to heal, and the area gradually shrank, showing signs of recovery. I then applied a topical plaster, Qingzhu Plaster, to the affected area. In less than two months, the skin disease that had troubled him for many years was completely cured.
