Itch
Hey kiddo! So you know when you have an urge to scratch your skin? That's called an itch. It happens when your brain gets a message that something is bothering your skin or inside your body.
The itchy feeling is your body's way of telling you that something is not right and you need to do something about it, like rubbing or scratching the area. But sometimes scratching can make it worse instead of better, especially if you do it too much.
Things like bug bites, dry skin, allergies or even a slight irritation can cause itchiness. But don't worry, most itches go away on their own or can be easily treated. If you have a persistent or severe itch, it's always best to talk to an adult and get it checked out by a doctor.
