Brief Summary:
In this study the investigators wish to investigate whether halophyte-based cream applied to the skin can reduce itch applied by means of small needles from the plant mucuna pruriens also called cowhage or by histamine an itch-evoking substance formed in the human body Further the investigators wishes to investigate whether long-term application of halophyte-based cream has a pain-relieving effect on heatcold and pinprick stimulations
Detailed Description:
Salt-tolerant plants also called halophytes can grow in saline soil or directly in salt water eg along coasts For centuries these plants have been used in folk medicine and among other things they are believed to have pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effect
Even though experiments have already investigated halophytes as a pain relieving substance the mechanisms in relation to pain andor itch are still unknown Therefore the investigators wish to investigate whether halophyte-based cream applied to the skin can reduce itch applied by means of small needles from the plant mucuna pruriens also called cowhage or by histamine an itch-evoking substance formed in the human body Further the investigators wishes to investigate whether long-term application of halophyte-based cream has a pain-relieving effect on heatcold and pinprick stimulations
