Why do Eczema Sufferers Scratch?

.....becos sometimes it really is very itchy

.....becos there are bits flaking off, so we start picking it or try to rub it off. Result itchiness

.....becos something has been brushing against it and irritated the area

.....becos it is hot....we like it cold (perhaps that's why am looking at the cold lands!) and without the central heating

.....becos we're feeling irritated at people telling us to "stop scratching" or slapping our hands away or websites like eczematreat that copy our content word for word with zero links back to the websites they have copied it from or people telling us "go or scratch some more!"

Now we know these people care about us and it would be great if they carried on caring about us and gave us something to do with our hands as a distraction. For example like give us a tall cold drink which could help to relieve the symptoms.
