How should I stop the urge to scratch my itching skin?

How should I stop the urge to scratch my itching skin?

Here's a trick that works every time. Lightly tap the area (using fingertips) that is itchy. This stops the itching sensation and does no harm to the skin. It is also handy because you don't need anything that is not a part of your body to be able to do it (like creams, etc.).

I learned that trick from a plastic surgeon. I have used it ever since he told me about it.
