How To Relieve Itching After Viral Gastroenteritis?
my 3 year old daughter is just over viral gastroenteritis as diagnosed by my GP. While she had it (2 weeks) she had minor itching on her torso and limbs. Since the vomiting has stopped the itching is getting worse - especially at night and she is tearing at herself and keeping herself up at night. I have tried hydracortosone 1% to no effect, oatbran bath, Is this itching related and is there anything else I can do for her?
