I’m itchy again. My lower right arm is driving me crazy. Now it’s all red and angry looking. I was just trying to help when I scratched it. It had my attention.
I rubbed sea buckthorn oil hand lotion on it. That usually works and I have several tubes of it. Not this time, though.
I rubbed oil from a punctured seabuckthorn oil capsule on it. Still itchy. I rubbed Vick’s Vapo Rub on it. Still itchy. Vick’s stops one’s attention to insect bites, even bee stings in a matter of seconds. It did not work for this itch.
I’d just been reading about medication for itching. No thanks to that route, if at all possible. Thank goodness it was Saturday, not the most popular day for prescription writing. And just as well. I was really do-something-drastic-about-it-now itchy.
Then I noticed some aloe vera activator (finely filtered aloe juice…it looks like water and does wonders for ear aches, sore eyes and runny noses etc, even itchy spots.)
But I wanted Aloe Vera Gelly, thicker and much more viscous than the juice but de-pulped. It’s ready in a tube to be rubbed on and form a film in five minutes or less, over the affected area…my lower arm.
Ahhhh! That felt good. It lasted for nearly twelve hours before that itchy little tingle came back and I had to apply it again.
It’s like a band-aid but it’s not waterproof so your skin can breath.
Yeah! Aloe Vera!
