Experiencing itchy or burning skin?

If you are experiencing itchy or burning skin, it may be related to the water.
I have recently been dealing with severe burning and itching skin, mainly on my arms. I visited Dr. Gabby yesterday and received some advice that I would like to share.
It was suggested that I avoid showering with the current tap water, as the issue may not only be the high salt content, but also the possible presence of bacteria and heavy metals in the water supply during this very low water level period.
Starting today, I will be using garrafón bottled water for bathing as a precaution. I am hopeful this will help improve the situation soon.
If you would like more information, please feel free to call or email me. WhatsApp 314-108-8884 or hobsoncecilia@gmail.com
Oh, thanks for sharing, Ceci. It could also be that they are adding more chlorine now to that water in order to deal with the salt (which doesn't make much sense) but it would make sense if there's more bacteria to eradicate. All in all, not such a good product coming out of our taps. I'm realizing I should be collecting rainwater, but I have a palapa roof and no other kind of roof to drain the water off to fill up a Rotoplas in my backyard. Or maybe there is a way? Does anybody have some ideas?
I had a problem,em with itchy skin and gunky hair after a shower for the past few summers. Rinsing off with garafon water helped a lot. This year I ordered ashower head with a filter for hard water from Amazon. Problem solved!
