Why does my child's skin itch every night?
Children's skin is much more sensitive and delicate than adults. Especially at night, body temperature rises, tending to make itching more severe. This itching is closely connected to deep inside our body, especially the 'gut' environment. In Korean medicine, skin is viewed as a mirror reflecting internal organ status, and gut health leads directly to skin health.
