熱水浴越沖越痕
靜香：「冬天到我喜歡用比較熱的水沖涼，身上的痕癢會暫時紓緩，但沖涼後又痕起來，怎麼辦？」
CheckCheckCin：冬天冷冰冰，沖個熱水浴的確很舒服，但熱水浴止痕只是一時之快，太熱的熱水會令皮膚表面失去脂質，皮膚會變得更為乾燥，人體正常體溫介乎攝氏36至37度，沖涼水溫以接近體溫的攝氏35至38度為佳，不宜高過攝氏42度，尤其浸浴的話更要注意，太高水溫會讓血壓上升，造成心臟負擔，水溫過高加上浸泡時間過長容易導致暈倒昏迷、心臟缺血缺氧等情況，所以浸浴時間以不多於20分鐘為佳。沖涼後宜立即抹乾，趁身體還濕潤時塗上潤膚乳來鎖住水分。很多人身體痕癢的原因為濕熱，適量進食清熱祛濕的食材，同時避免進食辛辣、海鮮、煙酒等動風發物，有助紓緩疜症狀。

Hot water bath can worsen itchy skin
“I like to bath in hotter water during winter as it helps relieve the itch on my body, but I’ll feel itchy again not long after. What can I do?”
CheckCheckCin: The weather is cold during winter. Taking a hot bath is definitely a nice experience, but you may want to think twice if you believe it can help stop the itch on your body. Using hot water can cause the skin to lose its sebum, and your skin will be even drier.
Since our body temperature is within 36 – 37 degree Celsius, it would be appropriate to bath in water within the range of 35 – 38 degree Celsius. Avoid going beyond 42 degree Celsius.
Be extremely mindful if you are using a bathtub, as water at a high temperature can increase blood pressure, which would in turn cause additional burden to the heart. If a person dips in the hot water for too long, he or she might feel dizzy and faint, or suffer from oxygen deficiency in the heart. Therefore, it is best not to spend more than 20 minutes in the bathtub.
Do wipe the body dry right after the shower, and apply moisturizer to lock in the moisture while it is still slightly wet. Many people experience itch on the body because of damp-heat. Consume an appropriate amount of ingredients that can eliminate dampness from the body. In order to better relieve the itch, avoid consuming hot and spicy food, seafood, as well as wind-stimulating items such as cigarettes and alcohols.
