Itching Local

Local itching has an independent diagnostic value, especially with a prolonged course. In such cases, it is often necessary to use the vivisector method of research. As a rule, after successful desensitization of patients, acute and chronic diseases of internal organs are asymptomatic and local manifestations become short-lived or even disappear completely. This greatly facilitates differential diagnosis, indicates irrational treatment and helps to avoid the prescription of unnecessary drug therapy. Changes in other organs and systems of the body also have diagnostic significance.
