被蚊叮劃十字止痕？
朱先生：「聽說被蚊叮後在叮口上用指甲劃十字可以止痕，真的嗎？」
CheckCheckCin：被蚊叮後痕癢，是因為蚊子在我們的皮膚上吸血前會吐出唾液，這些唾液會刺激我們的免疫系統引發過敏反應，令皮膚紅腫及痕癢，用指甲在患處劃十字並沒有止痕作用，如果手指或指甲不乾淨，更可能令敏感情況加劇。
有蚊叮痕癢的話，可以先用肥皂水清洗，以及用金銀花煲水外洗患處，因為金銀花有清熱消暑及消炎作用，但注意蠶豆症患者不可使用。同時避免進食發物，例如蝦、蟹、鰻魚、貝類、鵝肉、雞蛋、茄子、竹筍、菇類等，這些食物易動風發癢，加重皮膚瘡瘍腫毒症狀。如果你非常惹蚊，留意自己是否濕熱或陰虛體質，因為蚊子偏愛體溫偏高、體味重、多汗、汗味重的人，改善體質有助防蚊。

Draw a cross ‘X’ on a mosquito bite to relieve the itch?
“I have heard that drawing an X on a mosquito bite using our fingernail can relieve the itch, is that true?”
CheckCheckCin: We feel itchy after a mosquito because the mosquito has fed on our blood and spat out saliva on our skin. The saliva will trigger our immune system and cause an allergic reaction, causing the skin to swell and itch.
Pressing our fingernail on to draw a cross on the mosquito bite will not relieve the itch. If our fingers or fingernails are not clean, it might even further cause the area to be more sensitive.
You may use soap water to clean the mosquito bite, and use water boiled with Japanese honeysuckle to wash the area, because Japanese honeysuckle can dissipate heat and has anti-inflammatory properties. Please take note that patients with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PDD) should not opt for this method.
At the same time, avoid eating stimulating food such as prawn, crab, eel, shellfish, goose meat, eggplant, bamboo shoot and mushrooms, as they can easily stimulate wind pathogen to cause itch, and aggravate the skin condition. If you seem to attract mosquitoes, do check and see if your body has a damp-heat or Yin-deficient condition. Mosquitoes are drawn to human bodies that are slightly higher in temperature, with strong odor, sweat a lot and with odor, hence improving these conditions can help repel mosquitoes.
