Itchy skin and scalp



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else having this issue? I think especially my scalp. I guess every thing is just super dry. Not sure if it's from surgery or not, but it was not like this before surgery.

I also have that though I don't remember when it started. I use Selsun Blue Shampoo periodically and it really helps. Are you taking Biotin? That is supposed to be good for skin and hair.< /p>

I take it every once in a while. I already had it for the chemo med I have to take every week. At this point it is pretty difficult for me and all the pills I have to take.....

Not the scalp part, but just about everywhere else itches all the time.

Before surgery I never had anything like this.

And now, I've resorted to having to use lotion to keep my skin moist. I've hated lotion with a passion in the past, but unfortunately now it is part of my daily routine.

OH THE ITCHIES!!!!

This is new to me. I am using Cetaphil on my legs and arms. If I don't use the lotion the ITCHIES wake me up in the night. The lotion does seem to work. I am guessing that this too will go away with time.

My back hurts and it's due to weight loss but the itches holy cow. I ask hubby to rub me down every night and when traveling I desperately look for a back scratcher of some sort. It's worse on my back
