Albina asks:

About 12 years ago (now I am 26 years old), for the first time, a brown seal appeared on the outer surface of the shoulder, slightly rising above the level of the skin, after a certain period of time exactly the same seal appeared on the shoulder blade from the same right side. They didn’t bother me at all: I didn’t notice any itching or growth. Gradually, the exact same seals began to appear on different parts of my body: on my legs, on my stomach, on my back (with what frequency I can’t say exactly). And the seal on the inner surface of the left thigh began to itch, I combed it and regretted it very much - a formation “came out” from the comb, which has not healed and has been bleeding constantly since August. I don’t know what to do. Please help!

Olga asks:

Hello! In early November, I went to the seaside and the skin on my back burned a little. I treated it with panthenol, the skin itched a lot, but then it went away. And now again itches not the whole back, but only one shoulder. What should I do? There are no spots and rashes on the skin, just itching.

Responsible Grebchenko Ekaterina Nikolaevna:

Hello.
To determine the cause of itching, a face-to-face consultation and a complete history taking are necessary.
It is recommended to take antihistamines, for example, Cetrin (1 tab 2 times a day) for 7 days.
External therapy in the absence of skin manifestations is not necessary.

Lisa asks:

I have smooth, clean skin, but for some reason, itching occurs regardless of the time of day, and after scratching, very, very small red, titmouse-like dots remain. The distance between the dots is a millimeter, two. The dottedness of such points throughout the body is different, from a centimeter to a dozen, for example, from the elbow to the shoulder (inner and back side) with the capture of the armpit (not the cavity itself, but around it). What it is? Tell me please. Reply to my email address. Thank you.

Responsible Kovalenko Andrey Vitalievich:

Very vague description. I dare to suggest irritated skin (wearing tight underwear, wool, synthetics ... can provoke itching and other agents). One of the ways to moisturize and nourish the skin is with lotions, gels (oilatum, topikrem, excipial ....). You can also try taking antihistamines. But it is more correct to understand the problem together with a dermatologist or an allergist.

Natalia asks:

I want to tell everything in order. It all started a year ago, after a trip to the country, they couldn’t understand the reason, either they bit small midges and combed them with dirty hands, or from the sun, but my husband and I started to scratch our legs (below the knees) and hands (below the elbows). At that time, the husband still injured his leg and there was itching (like hives) around the wound. It did not last long for him, and at night I was torn to the point of blood. I went to a dermatologist, she didn’t tell me anything definite, according to my descriptions she couldn’t determine the diagnosis, she prescribed an ointment for allergies. Nothing helped. After a while, they advised Triderm, the itching began to go away. After half a year, we went to the sea and everything resumed there again (mostly legs), Triderm removed the itching after a while. Not so long ago, after a small burn, exactly the same itching and pimples appeared in the groin, this time Panthenol helped more. And the other day I injured my shoulder, the wound practically healed, and around it itching again (at night) with pimples. What is it and how to treat it?

Elena asks:

Good afternoon Help me find the cause of the disease! 2 years ago, ARVI was accompanied by acute pharyngitis, signs of parotitis and conjunctivitis. I was treated, but there was no special success. Now my hands go numb after sleep, my legs are heavy. There were aching pains in the scapular region of the back. There was intermittent pain or burning in the wrist area. Constant muscle pains were first in the left arm, then a sharp pain in the shoulder. A diagnosis of scapulohumeral periarthritis was made. I passed UHF, ozocerite. A week later, pain appeared in the right arm and shoulder. Mild pains appeared in the joints of the legs and arms, joints of the toes. Suddenly, the gums became inflamed and the teeth ached. I was treated for periodontal disease, but the itching, pain and sensitivity of the front teeth remained. I passed a biochemical blood test: rheumatic factor is negative, uric acid is normal, ASL-O 1+
During the day, when I move, I feel better than after the night. There is thyroiditis. I am undergoing treatment.

Responsible Maykova Tatyana Nikolaevna:

Elena, your complaints are similar to problems with the nervous system, but I do not know what medications you take to treat thyroiditis and what kind of thyroid hormone tests you have.

Many people know very well, but not everyone knows what the right shoulder is itching for. According to popular belief, a guardian angel accompanies a person on the right side. On the left side, the demon constantly walks.

Itchy right shoulder - signs

Folk tales say that the right shoulder is considered friendly or working. Therefore, if it suddenly itches, you should wait for the arrival of guests or have to work. Right shoulder itches badly:

1. to a love adventure that will end in a favorable outcome;
2. to work in the country or in the garden, where you have to work hard with your hands;
3. it means that the person is generous and wasteful (perhaps there will be a revelry at his expense);
4. to unexpected financial receipts, perhaps a person will inherit or hit the jackpot in the lottery.

On such a day, try to make the most of your luck: take on things that previously seemed risky (they will end happily), do not give up romantic meetings, make purchases, enter into business contracts. Any undertakings on this day will bring only positive.

If the left shoulder itches or itches, the predictions are not so joyful and optimistic. This means that a person is in for trouble, anxiety, worries, bad news or unforeseen expenses.

A deceived husband will understand why his left shoulder itches when he finds his wife on a “hot” one. After all, the sign says that the left shoulder itches for treason, deceit, resentment and tears.

If a person works as a judge, then the omens that decipher the sign of itchy sensations are significantly different from people of other professions. It is believed that the judge on this day will pass a fair verdict and successfully complete the work begun.

On this day, it is better not to plan events. It is worth rescheduling the upcoming trip and not engaging in conversations on sensitive topics with colleagues, friends or strangers in order to avoid serious conflicts.

Both shoulders itch - signs

If the shoulders itch at the same time, then it’s time for the person to get ready for the road. The sign is interpreted depending on the time of day:

• Morning scratching predicts a little trip.
• A pronounced daytime scratching on both sides indicates a two or three day journey.
• If itching appeared in the evening, then a long journey is ahead. Perhaps it will be associated with work or leisure.

The interpretation of signs is influenced by the time of itching sensations and the gender of the "victim":

• Irritation on the skin of the shoulders of the girls speaks of a pleasant "surprise" that awaits them soon. It will be a long-awaited gift, an invitation to a concert of your favorite artist or a romantic dinner with rose petals and candles. In any case, a fan or lover will take the initiative.
• For business men (lawyers, financiers, entrepreneurs), an itchy sensation promises a successful ending to recently started or unfinished business.
• If a woman’s shoulders itch, then she will have to work overtime or she will meet with friends, acquaintances or friends.

Signs advise spitting three times over the left shoulder or throwing a pinch of salt to avoid the evil eye and neutralize the intrigues of the demon behind the back on the left side. It is not recommended to spit through the right side - you can incur trouble and trouble.

In the common people, there are many signs associated with itchy shoulders. For example, there is a sign that if the right shoulder itches, then this promises joy and a pleasant surprise. Conversely, bad news and betrayal are what the left shoulder itches for.

However, often rashes and itching of the skin on the shoulders are in no way connected with superstitions and can be caused by various dermatological diseases.

If the shoulders and back itch, a small rash or large spots appear, if the skin itches or hurts, then medical attention is needed. Diseases that itch the shoulders and forearms can be of a different nature. Infectious, allergic or fungal - this should be dealt with by the attending physician.

So, the most common diseases that cause itching and rashes on the shoulders are:

There are a great many causes, and accordingly diseases of the epidermis. If the spots on the shoulders itch, a dermatologist should deal with the examination and diagnosis.

Causes of itching on the shoulders and back are not dangerous to health

Not always rashes and itching in the area of ​​​​the shoulders or back are associated with any disease. It happens that the skin itches due to overdrying of the skin, and this is often associated with poor quality tap water. To eliminate such a problem, it is necessary to moisturize the skin on the shoulders and back with creams or lotions.

If the shoulder or back itches during a hot period, then this may be due to increased sweating. You need to change and shower more often.

A skin rash can be caused by an insect bite. Bites can be wiped with vinegar diluted with water, this will relieve itching and soothe the skin.

Itching on the left or right shoulder, as well as on the back, can occur in older people. Due to hormonal changes, the skin undergoes age-related changes.

Prevention of skin diseases that cause rashes and itching

Preventive measures are very important for people with sensitive skin. The main preventive measures include:

Pimples on the shoulders

1. Identify and eliminate contact with all allergens. This applies not only to food, but cosmetics and household chemicals.
2. Limit or avoid alcohol and caffeine altogether. When drinking such drinks, the vessels dilate, which provokes heating of the skin and, as a result, severe itching appears.
3. Strictly follow the rules of personal hygiene. It is necessary to carry out water procedures at least twice a day. It is important to remember that too hot water dries the skin, and rubbing irritated skin with a terry towel leads to even more damage to it.
4. Change bed linen and towels as often as possible.
5. Wear underwear made from natural fabrics. It is also worth abandoning woolen and fur products.
6. Do not scratch your shoulders and back, constant scratching provokes the appearance of wounds and infections.

Obviously, it is easier and cheaper to prevent any disease than to treat it.

Folk remedies allow you to relieve itching with rashes on the shoulders for a while, but with serious diseases, itching and irritation return with renewed vigor.

Skin itching accompanies many skin diseases. However, here we are talking about primary itching, the cause of which is hidden and it is usually not always possible to establish it with certainty. Often such itching turns into a typical neurodermatitis, and for quite a long time on the skin, except for scratching, no changes are observed. Such itching is usually considered as a disease, as an independent type of neurodermatosis.

The sensation of itching is difficult to define, but it is understandable to everyone, since everyone has experienced it to a mild degree. In patients with neurodermatitis, itching is not normal - it reaches such intensity that it deprives patients of rest, disrupts their performance, and often leads to a severe neurotic state, insomnia. Usually itching appears paroxysms, especially intensifying at night. An attack of severe itching J. Darier characterizes as follows.

At first, the patient feels a slight itching and can still control himself, restrain himself, but gradually he succumbs to an irresistible craving for scratching, which is constantly increasing. The satisfaction of this attraction becomes a voluptuous sensation. Soon the patient becomes pale with bloody scratches on the skin, seized with longing, forgetting everything because of the morbid condition and the irresistible desire to comb. The patient literally torments himself, being, as it were, in the power of a blind force. Sometimes only after the skin is torn to the blood, relief comes, the patient calms down, the attack comes to an end.

Etiology and pathogenesis. Feelings of itching can be caused artificially if you draw on the skin, lightly touching it, with some soft object. Itching may also occur in the limbs during chills; insect bites (mosquitoes, bedbugs, fleas, etc.) are usually accompanied by itching. In the examples given, itching can be considered as a physiological phenomenon resulting from irritation of the receptor apparatus of the skin and the resulting reflex spasm of the capillary blood vessels of the skin. Appearing in such cases, itching and subsequent scratching can be considered a protective reaction of the body, aimed at removing the irritant.

As for the pathological itching that occurs with neurodermatosis and other skin diseases, its etiology and pathogenesis are more complex and not yet sufficiently elucidated. One thing is certain, that itching in its physiological essence is a neuroreflex process, and, apparently, in some cases, long-term itching has a conditioned reflex character.

The disappearance of itching with appropriate suggestions in hypnosis, as well as the possibility of inducing itching by acting through the second signaling system of a perfectly healthy person, indicate that functional disorders of the cerebral cortex play the main role in the formation of the sensation of itching.

There are also cases of psychogenic itching that occurs in some people at the sight of insects (lice, bedbugs, etc.). In the clinic, it is often necessary to observe itching after the treatment of scabies, when inflammation in the skin has already completely disappeared (akarophobia). It must be assumed that such itching is conditioned reflex in nature.

Localized itching of the vulva, anal region can be caused by various reasons (worms, hemorrhoids, anal fissures, chronic diseases of the genital area, etc.), but it is fixed as a conditioned reflex itch and often remains after the elimination of the etiological factor.

Itching of the vulva and scrotum in some cases is associated with onanism, and then is fixed as a conditioned reflex process.

In the occurrence of itching in some patients - in obese persons, the elderly, with liver diseases, jaundice, metabolic disorders, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, apparently, autointoxication, disturbances in oxidative processes, as well as the effect on the receptor apparatus of substances of tissue metabolism play a role.

Itching is very often observed in allergic conditions. Many skin diseases (eczema, neurodermatitis, urticaria, etc.) are based on an allergic condition, and, as a rule, itching increases with an increase in allergies.

Skin itching symptoms. For the occurrence of itching sensations, both the intensity and the quality of the stimulus are important. If the irritant initially causes itching, then with an increase in its intensity, itching is replaced by pain. It is also known that some irritants (for example, morphine, quinine, arsenic, etc.) have the property of causing itching, while other medicinal substances never cause itching.

It should be noted that in the sensation of itching, as well as pain, the subjective element is of great importance. Different patients tolerate itching differently depending on the functional state of their nervous system. The best objective criterion for determining the intensity of itching are excoriations as a result of scratching. Often there are patients who complain of severe itching, depriving them of sleep, and on examination they do not find any traces of scratching or have slight excoriations. In other cases, if the patient has a huge number of excoriations of a linear nature, there are almost no complaints of itching.

The discrepancy between the intensity of itching and its perception is usually observed in neurotics - hysterics, neurasthenics, psychasthenics. The proof of this is the fact that the removal of a neurotic state by suggestion in hypnosis leads to the weakening or disappearance of itching.

According to localization, limited and widespread, or generalized, itching is distinguished.

An example of limited itching is itching of the vulva, scrotum, anal area, an example of generalized itching is senile itching.

Itching and accompanying scratching usually lead to visible changes in the skin. The skin reacts to scratching either by expansion or spasm of blood vessels, resulting in hyperemia or ischemia; at the same time, tissue edema is also observed. Often, itching is accompanied by an urticarial reaction, characterized by spasm of blood vessels in the center and their expansion along the periphery of the blister.

Prolonged itching leads to the appearance of papular rashes, lichenification, excoriations, often to eczematization. When these clinical symptoms occur, the disease should already be considered as neurodermatitis.

Skin itching treatment. It is important to eliminate the causative factor, prescribe a non-irritating diet, sedatives and antihistamines. Warm baths, corticosteroid ointments, creams or alcohol wipes with menthol and anesthesin, Irikar cream are also recommended. It is necessary to exclude contact of the skin with synthetic, woolen and silk fabrics.

Skin rashes are symptoms of dermatological, systemic diseases. Itching on the hands, accompanying this symptom, causes inconvenience, causes neuroses. In order not to be distracted from work, to fully relax in the evening and at night, it is necessary to make a diagnosis and timely treatment.

The following adverse factors have a negative effect, cause itching of the skin of the hands:

• sunburn, hypothermia, chapping;
• improper selection of detergents;
• use of a cream that causes allergies;
• exposure to chemical irritants at work or at home:
• wearing clothes made of synthetics;
• nervous tension;
• avitaminosis;
• allergic reactions to food, medicines.

If the provoking factors are eliminated, then the hands will stop itching. There are a number of diseases in which itching is a concomitant symptom. These include:

• eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, scabies;
• allergy;
• failure of the endocrine system;
• kidney failure;
• diabetes;
• cirrhosis of the liver;
• vegetative dystonia.

With these diseases, itching of the palms, the outer side of the hands is noted. May appear on the elbows, forearms. To eliminate unpleasant manifestations, you must contact a dermatologist, therapist or other specialized specialists.

What diseases cause itching on the hands

Let us consider in more detail the common diseases in which itchy hands are a pronounced symptom.

Its nature is not fully understood. It is believed that the main causes of occurrence are a violation of the functions of the endocrine, digestive, and central nervous systems. With true eczema, vesicles with serous contents appear, which merge, after opening they form pink weeping spots. The chronic form is characterized by the appearance of skin cracks. Occupational eczema is caused by contact with a material containing an allergen, and dyshidrotic develops with sweating of the hands.

It starts from the elbows or on the hands. Small papules similar to allergic rashes form between the fingers. The patient experiences severe itching. Then gray scales appear, the size of the plaques and the area of ​​the lesion increases, sometimes reaching the shoulders. If you remove the scales, you can see a glossy smooth surface. The disease is non-infectious, not transmitted by contact or through dishes.

A distinctive feature of small rashes from other skin diseases is increased itching in the evening and especially at night. The areas of the body where bubbles appear are as follows:

• between fingers;
• flexor surfaces of the shoulders and forearms;
• stomach;
• chest area around the nipples;
• armpits;
• feet, ankles.

The initial stage of scabies is manifested by rashes in the form of small nodules. The advanced form is characterized by the appearance of pustules, bloody crusts.

Women and children get sick more often. The disease occurs from contact with chemical and mechanical stimuli. Also causes are medicines, animal hair, plant pollen. The acute form of dermatitis occurs after interaction with a toxic allergen.

It begins with edema, hyperemia of the hands and fingers. Later, there are watery and itchy subcutaneous vesicles filled with a clear fluid. The skin in the affected areas begins to peel off. Prolonged contact with the allergen contributes to the transition of dermatitis to eczema.

Diabetes

Insufficient production of insulin by the pancreas leads to an excess of sugar in the vessels, which cease to function fully, are gradually destroyed. The skin, which dries and flakes, reacts to pathological processes caused by metabolic disorders. In addition to the hands, the lower limbs, genitals, eyes, and ears itch. Sweating is disturbed, which leads to the appearance of sores and pustules. It is necessary to take measures to lower blood sugar.

Associated symptoms

Despite the varieties of eczema, everyone has common signs - inflammation, burning, swelling, redness of the skin of the hands. Bubble papules after opening leave weeping erosive areas, wounds and cracks. There are forms of psoriasis in which the disease is outwardly asymptomatic, but is manifested by damage to the joints, the occurrence of arthrosis. Psoriasis occurs not only in the forearms, hands and elbows, but also affects the nail plates of the fingers. They thicken and flake. This feature also applies to scabies.

When infected with a scabies mite in preschool children, the body temperature rises, appetite disappears. They become lethargic and irritable. Diabetes mellitus is accompanied by frequent urination, thirst, damage to the retina. Patients gain weight in the initial stages, then lose weight when eating large amounts of food. Due to a decrease in the body's immune defenses, wounds heal poorly, dizziness, and colds become more frequent.

Differential Diagnosis

The diagnosis begins with a visual examination, which reveals the characteristic features of skin rashes. The patient is interviewed in order to clarify additional symptoms. Laboratory tests are being carried out. Histology of psoriasis reveals erythema, infiltration, and hyperkeratosis. Sometimes similar plaques appear with HIV, so the doctor directs the patient to take a blood test to determine this infection. The nature of the rash varies depending on the stage.

Diagnosis is difficult if there is no peeling. To identify allergic dermatitis, an allergen is applied to the surface of the skin for 48 hours, and the reaction of the epidermis to the sample is monitored. Eczema is determined by visual inspection. Additionally, the doctor prescribes a general and biochemical blood test. Scabies is determined with a skin scraping. During microscopic examination of biological material, ticks, waste products, eggs and larvae are isolated.

A blood sugar test detects diabetes. The type of disease is determined by the amount of sugar. In disputable cases, the patient is given to drink pure or diluted glucose in water, take blood for analysis after 2 hours. The procedure is called a glucose tolerance test. If the test confirms the excess of the norm, this indicates type 2 diabetes.

How to deal with itching at home

In order not to complicate the course of the disease by combing your hands, you can take the following measures at home:

• give up spicy, salty and fatty foods, alcohol, coffee;
• follow a low-carbohydrate diet for diabetes;
• choose hand cream, soap, gel according to skin type;
• exclude aggressive cleaners and detergents from use;
• wear clothes made from natural fabrics, contact with which does not cause allergies.

At home, itching is removed with soda. It is added when taking a bath, lotions and compresses are made, which are left on the affected areas of the hands for at least 30 minutes. Rubbing the skin with an apple or potato cut in half will help. Creams with menthol, salicylic acid, eucalyptus oil are suitable for cooling.

Pharmaceutical remedies for itching on the hands

Medicines are prescribed by a doctor depending on the disease.
With allergic dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis, antihistamines are taken - Loratadin, Zirtek. To remove intoxication - coal tablets, Enterosgel, Polysorb. In the initial stages of eczema, drugs with calcium, magnesium and sodium are prescribed. In the treatment of a local nature, Borno-zinc, Ichthyol ointment is used. When significant areas are affected and the disease worsens, the following corticosteroid ointments are used:

• Skin cap;
• Celestoderm;
• Elocom;
• Advantan.

The scabies mite dies from sulfur-containing preparations - emulsions of Benzyl Benzoate, Balsam of Peru, Crotamiton. If an infection has joined the itching, there is a need for Tetracycline, Erythromycin ointment. Solcoseryl, Curiosin have a healing effect. Also, patients are shown vitamins A, group B, nicotinic and ascorbic acid. Assign immunostimulants, physiotherapy.

Traditional medicine recipes
