How To Prevent And Treat Dermatographia

Apply Tea Tree Oil

Applying tea tree oil to the skin can help with dermatographia outbreaks. This is considered an alternative treatment, but it’s one of the most effective. Medical studies suggest treatments applied directly to the skin are sometimes the most effective. When the skin breaks out, individuals can apply tea tree oil directly to the affected areas for relief, which is often instantaneous in many patients with dermatographia. Some patients may find pure tea tree oil quite drying to their skin, but using skin creams or other skin care products containing tea tree oil (those without fragrance of course) can not only provide the benefits of tea tree oil, but also mitigate the potential drying of the skin.
