Severe Itch Related to Hard Workload Treated with Acupuncture: Unexpected Results - A Case report.
Introduction: The effects of work-related stress (WRS) on occupational health often lead to reduced well-being and long-term sick leave. Itching or pruritus, a skin inflammation with a rash that provokes the desire to scratch, often occurs during stressful periods in patients with a history of atopic dermatitis (AD).
Case presentation: This patient suffered from severe WRS together with long-term therapeutically resistant pruritus for 8 years, resulting in severe itching. He was provided with an intervention with acupuncture treatment (AT) to prevent a long-term sick leave. The results showed an unexpected reduction in itching, skin inflammation, and eczema. Additionally, the treatment enhanced the patient's emotional and cognitive well-being and eliminated the need for sick leave.
Conclusion: Acupuncture can be an effective complementary treatment for severe itching related to WRS, in addition to standard medical treatments.
