      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Crossover, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: All sample subjects are divided into three equal groups by simple randomized methods. first 45 cards (equal to the number of sample volumes) will be prepared. Then, one of the letters A, B or C will be written on each card (15 cards A, 15 cards B and 15 cards C). These cards will be placed inside a box. so, no one will be able to see the cards inside the box. After shuffling the cards by the researcher, patients are asked to randomly remove a card from the box (selected cards will not be returned to the box after selection). Thus, Participants are divided into three groups of 15 members A, B and C.
 Also, to determine the type of intervention for each group in each stage, another randomization will be done by the researcher. In this way, three cards are prepared and one of the numbers one, 2 and 3 will be written on each card. Numbers 1, 2 and 3 will belong to Aloe Vera gel, Violet oil and Hydroxyzine tablets, respectively. These cards will placed in a box and after shuffling, the researcher will randomly select a card for each group (the selected cards will not be returned to the box after selection). For example, the researcher for group A randomly selects a card from the box. This card contains the number one. So in the first stage, the intervention of group A will be the use of Aloe Vera gel. In the same way, this process will be repeated for the other two groups and the next steps, Blinding description: In this study, the assistant researcher will complete the questionnaires to prevent bias in the results. Thus, the assistant researcher will be unaware of the groupings and the type of interventions performed in each group and by each Patient.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: In the first group, patients will be treated by 94% of SEAGULL's Aloe Vera gel twice per day for two weeks. Patients will use 3-5 cc of Aloe Vera gel to suit the dry and itchy area. After Wash out period the second treatment period will be continued by Violet oil made by Noshad Company twice per day for two weeks. Patients will use 3-5 cc of Violet oil to suit the dry and itchy area and after second Wash out period, the subjects will receive 10 mg Hydroxyzine tablets once a day (at night) for 2 weeks. Intervention 2: In the second group, patients will be treated by Violet oil made by Noshad Company twice per day for two weeks. Patients will use 3-5 cc of Violet oil to suit the dry and itchy area. After Wash out period, second treatment period will be continued by 10 mg Hydroxyzine tablets once a day (at night) for 2 weeks and after Wash out period, the subjects will receive 94% of SEAGULL's Aloe Vera gel twice per day for two weeks. Patients will use 3-5 cc of Aloe Vera gel to suit the dry and itchy area. Intervention 3: In the third group, patients will be treated by 10 mg Hydroxyzine tablets once a day (at night) for 2 weeks.
