When you are itchy or have bug bites do you: Use hot water or scratch

My mother in law had bug bites all over her leg and was itchy. So I told her use hot water and she ignored my suggestion. My husband had several spots on the back of his leg and he listened to me, y’all this man moaned and told me he can’t believe how euphoric it felt. And that he’s ignored my hot water suggestion for 5 years! Y’all truly be sleeping on the shiver up spin, skin gasm, euphoric getting all your itchies all at once feeling. This works with eczema, rashes, bug bites, you name it
