Itchy Skin

Itchy skin is one of the more common ways the body lets someone know something has irritated their skin. It is a symptom of many conditions, including phytophotodermatitis. When you suffer from phytophotodermatitis and have an outbreak, it will itch quite a lot in the affected area after the initial break out. Most patients will probably be tempted to scratch to relieve the itching, but this would just make the itching worse. Itchy skin will accompany the redness and the more a patient scratches, the redder their skin will probably get. The good news is the itching only last a couple days after the initial break out. It should go away or at least ease up after this period.
