As someone that wears a bra I can't imagine life without one tbh. What do people do without them? Just accept the itching?? Rub their back along walls and furniture like a bear?
You joke, but my husband does this all the time.
I can't always find mine, and yes. When it happens and the scratcher is nowhere to be found I have three options:
Pointlessly, and furiously try to scratch it myself, fail and just accept my suffering.
Find something significantly textured or sharp(ish) to stand in for the scratcher, like a rope or the corner of a wall, or a doorway or something, then rub my back on it like a crazed bear.
Ask for help.... I mean, if anyone is around at all....
I've taken to supplementing my main back scratcher with a few cheap ones that are strategically placed around in case of emergencies since my "good" one keeps going missing on me.... I used to have a stable place to keep it, not so much, since I've recently moved... Now I'll find it behind the couch or on the floor under a random table. I need to get a good, steady location to keep it, so I know where it is at all times.
Can't feel back itch when feeling back pain
