A member asked:

Why do i stay extremely hot after showers, even if i take cold ones?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Hard to tell: Needs investigation.First i would check with my doctor and rule out endocrine problems. After that i would turn to an acupuncturist or energy healer for help as that may be related to energy flow imbalances.

After sweating/taking a shower, my body becomes itchy. This only happens when I take cold or lukewarm showers, not with hot showers. I dont get rashes, and the itch goes away w/ time or faster if I apply heat (ex. sunbathe).Lotion does not help. Why?
