Where does an itch come from?!


Question: Where does an itch come from!?
Why do they occur!? And why does "scratching" them make them go away!? Just curious!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
many things; irritants, allergies, diseases, medications, dryness, and most of the time it's even psychological!.

I don't know if it's true, but I read once that different spots on your skin can feel either pain or itch; so when you scratch the neurons that convey pain become very active that they kind of take all the available pathways from the itch neurons, thus possibly reducing the itch or masking it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

bugs, dust or any kind of particle that comes into contact with your skin and it creates an irritation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
