Are you bothered (as I am) with itching as the scratch heals? MLB

I'm looking forward to that (NOT!) in a few days. Right now it just
feels a little bruised and sore.

For me, the itching starts almost immediately, or within 5 or 10 minutes
of getting scratched. One thing that does wonders for that is to put some
hydrogen peroxide on it immediately after the scratch. That really seems
to stop the itching in its tracks.
