[QUOTE="Eiche, post: 173955, member: 29874"] Anything with tea tree oil in it should work. I found a home made remedy that I tried on my son who has exema worked a treat... Take oatmeal and soak in water for 20 mins. Mix well and then strain the liquid adding it to a cup. Add 5 drops lavender oil (or lavender stalks steeped in cup hot water). Add 5 drops rosemary oil (or rosemary stalks steeped in cup hot water). Allow to cool until tepid. Mix the liquids together and dab on your scalp and leave it on for 10 mins to soothe the itch. This isa good temporary soother for itching. Chamomile tea is also soothing! Zinc Pyrithione: Wonderful stuff for scalp conditions. It's the most widely used active ingredient from a natural source. It's used to treat dandruff, seborrheic dermatitus, psoriasis, eczema and numerous other skin and scalp disorders. It has strong anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties. There are many more remedies :) [/QUOTE]
