You know its actually cool and reliefing knowing that your not alone whenever one's experiencing certain difficulties in life.
Mine started 11years ago. I have always taken my bath with sponge ever since I was a kid and each time I bath, the cooling effect of the breeze was so so refreshing but it all ended wen I was in SS2.
That fateful morning, I took my bath in our guest toilet(I never really like it though) because my younger ones were using my regular bathroom. After bathing, I expected the usual feeling of freshness but what I got was OVERWHELMING....my hand started itching, little by little, followed by my legs, my stomach, my thighs infact "na dans I dey that very moment" I itched for like 25mins. You should have seen my face filled with so much anger to the extent that I started beefing our guest toilet ooo.
After that experience, I didn't take my bath for ONE WEEK funny enough because mehn I just couldn't face that itching again...later I decided to summon courage but even before I finished bathing sef, body don dey itch me for bathroom.
This continued for years and I coudnt tell anyone because I felt so ashamed(don't know why).
I tried so many remedies......different soaps, washed my towel and rinsed like ten times, cold,hot and medium water water bathing, pears baby oil, different vaselines and creams but mehn it only got worst to the extent that even rain or sometimes sweat can ignite the itching. Very terrible experience. Bathing even became a nightmare that I only took my bath "if and only if" I was certain that I was going out if not..."If I hear say I baff". Finally decided to go for test at the hospital...dey did every test possible even cutting my skin(probably for scabies) but the doctors said I was FINE.
Hmmmm...this was how I suffered ooo until I discovered my only best remedy--->bathing without sponge and rubbing vaseline directly on my body and towel for only my face only. Its such a relief ooo. Atleast now I can bath anytime I want and even sleep in the bathroom sef without been scared of this yeye itching.

The funny thing is that at some point I ALMOST got pissed of with God sef cos after the itching I would feel SO TIRED that the next thing on my mind is to SLEEP.


I opened this thread for ma fellow nairalanders to PLEASE share their own experiences and possible solutions so that those who are still suffering might get RELIEF again..thanksss
