Anyone who has had chicken pox, poison ivy, or a bug bite knows that the urge to scratch can often be worse than the itch itself. Colloidal oatmeal can help to alleviate the itch and its accompanying swelling as well as the desire to scratch.
Moreover, a wide range of studies have been conducted to evaluate the properties of oatmeal treatments when managing atopic dermatitis, and these studies have found that moisturizers and/or cleansers containing oatmeal significantly improved many of the clinical outcomes associated with atopic dermatitis.
Oats (Avena sativa) contain of a wide array of phytochemicals that include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, flavonoids, avenanthramides, tocols, alkaloids, saponins, and sterols. The diverse chemical make up of oats translates into a myriad of uses for inflamed irritated skin.
