Itching issues can be terrible to deal with.

Since I was a teenager (which means, for the last 20 years), I've had issues with itchiness on arms and legs after having showers, especially with hot water, and especially during hot days.

In some periods, the issues becomes quite irritating. Some other times, it rarely bugs me at all.

I've never found a solution. The best thing to do is to put cold water on arms and legs for a few seconds. This makes the pores close, and somehow reduces the problem.

It's never been a serious condition, but sometimes I get itchiness for 10-20 minutes, and sometimes - especially if I start scratching - it can be almost unbearable for several minutes.
