itching after workout

[miksha]

do you itch after workout? after jogging, speed walking or even doing cardio exercises my thighs itch. iniisip ko baka dahil tight clothes? pero i am using dry fit clothes na made for exercising naman. so i switched to dry fit clothes na loose. ganoon pa din. switched to regular clothing same din. iniisip ko kung sa sabon naman well bakit sa thighs lang?

[assie]

Ako din, Nag wa-wonder din ako bakit namumula at nangangati din skin ko after exercise.
Hmm why nga kaya? 

[ButHonestly]

If Im not mistaken, I believe you have a case of EXERCISE URTICARIA or also called Runner's Itch among other things. Could either be temperature-induced, or sweat-induced.

Well, thing is exercise increases the flow of blood to the skin, and this can result in itchiness. Sweat, wearing tight clothing that does not allow the skin to breathe and washing your workout attire in harsh detergents can cause itchy skin. Intense exercise can also cause the sweat glands to become clogged, resulting in an itchy heat rash. Dehydration contributes to dry, itchy skin during exercise.

And well, swerte nyo na actually kung itchiness nararamdaman nyo and not yung mga grabeng symptoms.

What you could do is to try to reduce sweating by running a fan or air conditioner while you exercise. That is if youre doing it indoors. Lightweight clothing that keeps your skin cool helps ward off itching. Thats why there are specific clothes for specific activities. Mahal nga lang, pero mas mahal pag nagkasakit ka.   Apply menthol, calamine, camphor or anhydrous lanolin to the affected areas to soothe any itching and discomfort. Well, for me, the simple petroleum jelly relieves minor itching. For chronic itching after exercise, you have to make a lil sacrifice by reducing the duration or intensity of your workout. If you tend to develop an allergic reaction while exercising, carry self-injectable epinephrine or Bendaryl, or others actually advice your you to take any form of antihistmine before exercise.

Also, avoid scratching itchy skin, because this can aggravate symptoms and cause infected pustules to develop! Trim your nails often, wear gloves or apply a wet compress to your skin to keep from you scratching.

I could be wrong though.

Nangangati ako pag nag-uundergo ako ng skin peeling, lalo na sa face o kaya gumagamit ng astringent. Pero pag hindi naman, wala naman akong issue sa pangangati.

I also experience this but only when I ride a bike or jog outdoors and it usually occurs on the inside portion of my thighs.  I do the turbo fire workout indoors but I do not experience itching.  I guess it has something to do with the temperature outside since it is quite cold sometimes here in Baguio.

i experienced this pag sobrang over pawis ko..sabi nila ganon raw pag sensitive skin.

[euwie]

Nangyayari rin sa kin to pero sa arms lang. Kapag sobrang init yata at pawis. (same reaction rin kapag sobrang lamig naman.) pero after ko maligo after a workout, nawawala na yung pangangati.

[SnowBall]

Naku mga sis, hindi pala ako nag iisa, ganyan na ganyan ako, pag lumalabas na pawis ko, ay naku ayan na simula na akong mangati...

[miksha]

tingin ko as sabi ni sis buthonestly  mine is temperature induced because yesterday i brisked walked and hindi naman ako pinagpawisan and mahangin at malamig pero nakakaramdam ako nang pangangati sa legs

[gepayat]

same here.. I experienced this after mag jogging pero kapag other excercise hindi naman.

[caramelli]

ako rin ganito.. kala ko nung una may kumagat sa akin, pero wala naman ako nakitang kung ano man sa pants ko. unang beses ko ito naexperience nung nilibot namin yung paligid ng MOA. talagang inalis ko pants ko sa loob ng car kasi grabe yung kati ng legs ko. tapos napansin ko kapag pinawisan ako dahil sa exercise, nangangati talaga sya.

[shera]

can also be due to chafing, better to run in loose running shorts than tight jogging pants

[caramelli]

ako na try ko na mag loose shorts pero ganun pa rin talaga effect sa akin.

i discovered na ganito ako when i was in college. ang hirap lang kasi hindi ma-ease yung itchiness kahit kamutin mo...parang it is underneath the skin! so i would rather walk and exercise longer than run kasi halos unbearable ang pangangati.

kapag hinahanap ko ang sagot sa condition na ito lactic acid lagi kong nakikita. hindi ko na masyado i-nintinde kasi nga i choose to exercise differently. kapag swimming, walang ganitong sensation; only when running or walking fast. kapag nakasakay ako sa van tapos yung legs ko nagji-jiggle sa galaw ng van, ang kati rin...mmm. related siguro sa fat?

[BicuriousGm]

Hi mga sis, dunno it this is true...sabi ng friend ko when i told her na nangangati ako while running or work out, sabi nya is because na burn ang Fats kaya daw ganun.

[gorgeouschef]

ganto din ako lalo na pag tumatakbo.. pero kung ibang work out naman like weight lifting hindi naman.. i'm not sure pero pag tinignan ko yung legs ko after the run tapos nangangati, feeling ko mga dugo na dumadaloy hahahaha.. kasi parang may mga red spots na pero wala namang insect bite.

my sister is feeling this too after we jog! so i googled it and then i read that it's just blood circulating in your legs and body, dapat daw tuloy tuloy ang jogging for  2-3 weeks and eventually it will go away :-)

[snowberry]

This happens to me when I jog. Ganito rin yung daughter ko. I searched it in the internet before and I read that it has something to do with the blood circulation and the brain reading the opening of the capillaries and arteries as stimuli. This happens daw yata kapag hindi used to physical activity ang katawan.

I can't jog because of this, puro kamot nangyayari  heheh,una sa thigh tapos sa tyan.  I bought an elliptical machine instead . Namumula lang ako pero wala namang kati, siguro  because nasanay na rin body ko sa exercise. I haven't try jogging again though.

[angeleigh]

Kapag ganon daw hindi daw maganda ang  blood circulation mo, naeexperience ko yan kapag matagal ako hindi nagworkout. Pagbalik ko, naku super kati as in parang tinutusok ng karayom na!
But after ilang days na continuous physical activities, okay na ulit.
