I’ve itched for the past two years saw dermatologist prescribed Dermacool, it’s a life saver, after my shower I rub it all over my body cools it down a treat, stay out of the sun, wear cotton clothing, nothing tight, try not to scratch, not easy I know, warm shower instead of hot. I also use non perfumed soap on my body and use a natural washing soap for my clothes, no perfume.
So helpful! Thanks for this! Subbed
Thank you doc. For your valuable advice related our skincare
Thanks a lot Doc Syed....this is really good...and easy to understand. Mine is only at night....which is I think nortunal proritus.
👍 Thanks for this,but can you also point out to your followers that to check the ingredients in those two products you mentioned as there maybe something in them that they could be allergic to.
Please do a video on how to cure hyperpigmentation and dry skin and what retinol should a 50 yr old person use
Great video, Doc!
Thanks Billy!
Loved this yet again Dr Syed! I'm learning more about medicine now that I was in class lol. Maybe the music was a bit loud and distracting? Might be because I'm playing it at 2x haha.
Thanks for the feedback as always, Archer!
Thankyou, dear Dr. God bless you.
Thank you Doctor, I am going through some bad issues with skin pain and itchy itchy itchy oh Lord please help me before I go silence of the lambs on myself. (be advised this is a joke) I just wanted to say that I appreciate the time and energy it takes to make videos like this espically in a time where our culture is over or under self educating with topics that are more serious than what we concieve to be on the "surface." Thank you thank you.
Really hoping you find relief soon!
Take an antihistamine
Go to the beach 🏖️ and swim it helps and the sauna and make sure you’re always moving your bowels regularly. I haven’t found a permanent solution yet
Thank you so much for the advice
My pleasure, I hope you get relief for your skin!
Hi Dr Syed! I have a question, do we get an itchy left forearm from an issue with pancreas or liver?
Congratulations brother... 10k...
Thank you!! I noticed after your comment hahaa
Very insightful 🙌
I developed this very irritating itching some years ago... when I wear pants (trousers) it irritates my skin so bad I become uncomfortable. Glad I came across this video.
Hope it's able to help on your journey to getting some relief!
Same here, when I put on pants or after shower.
Please what you use
Thought I was going cray-z wat do y’all do to stop it?
I use Dermacool prescribed by a Dermatologist, it’s cool and stops the itching, after my shower I rub it all over, it’s a life saver.
Can T4 medication cause itchiness? Also, what about stress? Greetings from Greece
Nice video and I possibly know one of the reasons is due to my BP and sugar medication, Stamace and Glador-M1 respectively. Besides, I had a light brown patch on the left side of my head,above the ears, which has now become very black and the itch there is terrible.
Now Iknow beacuse i experience itches, Iam taking medicine for my my bp and sugar
Good straight to the point video a few months ago I started itching every literally everywhere. I have really bad psoriasis on my scalp. But never no skin problems on my body few months later I still randomly itch randomly anyway anytime. Its do random I've had blood test all clear. I even thought I had bedbugs but nope still a mystery
Thanks for your feedback! I really hope you get to the bottom of your issue soon, it sounds very distressing! Have you seen your local derm to see if they can prescribe you some treatments to help?
@@usamasyed thanks for your response nope gp will be referring me in the meantime I've been prescribed aqua max which cream and hydrocortisone cream they help when I put on but once they try I start itching again.
I’m having THE SAME EXACT ISSUE
What do u do
Do you have recommendations on what to do if you get sea lice rash? Is there any way to avoid them? What do you do if you have the rash? Can I use steroids?
My face gets irritated and itchy from October till March basically the winter months in the UK. Summer time my skin is clean and no visible redness. I use Rozex active ingredient metronidazole which helps to reduce the redness and itch. I've also used Fucidin steroid cream. Haven't found any really solution and just seems to be getting worse every winter. Used to be mostly concentrated around the nose and now also on the sides. and eyebrows. What would you recommend on treating this?
I have exactly the same thing and when I itch the bad spots will cover more of my face. Have u found anything that helps already?
This was so educational! Loved the transitions (especially the cupake ones haha)
And the sponge Bob one 😅
I dont have any rashes since l movevto Europe 17 years ago, when am expose to heat l feel itchy all over my body at the same time, have done lot of text but nothing is detected can you help me pls
After doing some work or after going outside on sun (in winter ) body start itching any solution ?
Thank you! I will try process of Elimination of wash products. See if that works.
I really hope it works out for you!
My home is in a wooded area. Could it be the dust from the trees making us itchy? We have no see ums on us way before we enter the home as well. We get itchy and bit by things we can't see. People tell me that's normal living under the trees and that we need to develop thicker skin. How would we go about doing that?
Hey dude you probably won’t see this but over the last few months my skin from my knees ankles elbows forearms even back get random itches sometimes under my chin aswel.I know that there could be a lot of different causes Bht I’m not sure .I’m leaning towards allergies but I can’t figure out what it is .
I experience itching when I'm nervous, feeling hot, walking on a sunny day, or feeling embarrassed. It's become so intense that I often have to find a nearby bathroom to scratch. I suspect I might be allergic to heat or something similar. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?
That's me these days 😅
@@lesedimakhoba3807 think I cured mine. By water fasting and drinking herbs. No itchy today and I managed to run
Thank you so much. I have thyroid so it may be related but not likely since thus is recent (I was worried about that before watching this) but it may just be dry skin so thank you
Both very common causes!

Hey can you please make a detailed video about keratosis pilaris with the product recommendations which are easily available in Australia. Thanks in advance
Just use salicylic acid.
Hello my name is Venus . I know this is an old video but just a few days ago my body started breaking out in tiny bumps and what looks like ringworms & it’s really really itchy . I may have irritated it some by bathing in bleach before actually showering with an organic sulfur soap . I’ve never had this happen to me before & I’m freaking out because it seems to be spreading! Please help
Hi Venus! So sorry to hear that you’re going through this. I really recommend making an appointment to see your dermatologist urgently, as it’s best at times like this with sudden widespread rashes to get evaluated in person! There are many potential causes of this type of rash so it’s really important to get the care you deserve in person!
Informative ❤
Glad you think so!
Dr Im pots patient... I itch all over after I pee cause of dehydration.. constantly drinks water take salt... Other dehydration symptoms goes away but horrific itches doesn't... Please suggest something I get v itchy after I pee goes on all day
All the chemicals in the wet and dry coffee creamer has made me itch for years. I finally cut it out and no more itching. Yay! It was hard to do because I love dry creamer. I now order dry powdered whole milk from Hoosier Hill Farms. Only ingredient Milk. Because it doesn't have non-clumping chemicals I mix it with a small amount of hot water or coffee to make it pasty so it will mix well.

I have a question about the factor of "Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors" and how to handle itching scab that one can't stop scratching to it's bleeding?
I have gallstones. I Suffer from dull aches in the upper right abdomen every now and again but have never had a full blown attack. However, I do get weird sensations in my legs, itchy/prickly but not bad enough to make me claw at myself. I have convinced myself I have pbc and it’s affecting my mental health.
Hey Stevie! I recommend seeing your primary care doctor so they can do a work up to help either give you peace of mind, or give you a specific diagnosis so you can get some treatment! There are combinations of blood tests, imaging and clinical exams that can be done to test to see if you have bad gallbladder disease, and gallbladder conditions can cause itchiness too.
I have been constantly itching for weeks now, I don’t have rashes or bumps, I’ve changed my lotions, allergy medicine doesn’t work, and i be changed all my soaps and things like that but it just won’t stop, is there anything that you can think of i can do to help or make it stop??
What type of. Lotion u use
Hey man not sure if you're gonna see this but, I have been having uncontrollable itchiness for almost a decade now everytime I take a shower. The degree of it seems to be random and it usually starts mid to end shower. I'm not sure but it seems like sweating might be related to it as it becomes the most irritating after working out and hoping into the shower. I also remember having itchy legs when I was a kid while at the beach sometimes. I tried different temperatures but it doesn't seem to be affecting it, also different gels/soaps are doing the same thing. I'm starting to think it's an allergy to sweating? My skin is very sensitive and tends to be on the oily side. Do you have any idea what could cause this?
OMG I have exactly the same Itching as you , I have told my doctor but he just prescribed anti-histamines!!
An absolute life saver for me is a medication called LORATADINE In the Uk ( where im from ) you can just purchase it over the counter !
It doesn’t stop the itching but it does make it more bearable 👍🏼👍🏼
I have this issue too, I found a remedy that so far has been brilliant! Try organic castor oil, it really works!
False, it's a shower filter. All the dermatologists are liars. @@trishsmithdebrett4447
I’m having the same problem. It’s when I sweat , my body temperature rises or when I get anxious. And I’m in the sun a lot because I’m in the military so the itch is unbearable at work
My itching started in my teens especially when I thoroughly scrub in cold water. But in hot water I'm fine. So when it itches I get into my blankets or go outside and stand in the sun then I feel warm the itching goes away. .
Can you have stress inside your cells that would cause these itching and break outs on the skin.?
Hi Dr I have fungi and I took ketekonazole tablet and is giving me raches and needle pain itchy body please what should I do 🙏
Having itchy bumps on my chest and arms mainly for about 6 weeks i took anti histamines and they went but when i came off they came back.
The doctor said its my cat but i have had her for over a year and never had any problems dont know what to do
Get a second opinion if the current doctor can't give you any further help!
nice video , could u plz tell about itchiness near chin n throat region as soon as you consume sugar, I dont eat sugar/ deserts more than 1 spoon if I do so I immediately start coughing feel so much itchiness my blood sugar level is normal then y does this happen?
Hmm tough to say, I think a specific personal situation like this is best discussed in person with a doctor!

Hey can you do a video on itchy scalp? A few weeks back I noticed a small red bump when my scalp started itching in a small area. Now my whole scalp itches and there are multiple red bumps. What could it be? It's lockdown here so I can't really book an appointment either
Hard to say without an evaluation! Common causes on the scalp include psoriasis, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and folliculitis.
@@usamasyed I managed to book an appointment and went to see a dermatologist. My experience with her wasn't great tbh. She basically scolded me for using a lotion (which was a steroid) prior to the consultation. In my defense I had assumed it to be dandruff and used the lotion a different derma had prescribed me earlier (she is retired now) which is why I went to a different one. All in all, she told me to visit after a month and prescribed me ebastine. My itch has reduced significantly but hasn't gone completely yet.
Hey doctor can you please tell me the reason why my skin gets irritating when ever it get hot in cold climate..?
It’s so weird, I only experience my itch at night when I layed down on my stomach, I notice it comes when I get sweat glands, like if it’s being blocked and I just get this flair up of pins and needles all of my body which feels more concerning.
Omg..the pins and needles feeling is so real. 😢. Ive tried so many things. Sensitive body wash...no soap bars...perfume free laundry detergent...change my towel often..no rags ..i just use my hands...cold watee...perfume free moisturizer...sigh...everything works for awhile..then I'm back to pins and needles. 😢
Dr. Do you have any tips for jock itch? I’ve tried every cream and spray…
Usually needs a combination of making sure you treat any underlying condition (infection, allergy etc) and then using anti-inflammatory creams like low strength steroids and non-steroid options! See your local derm!
Technical oil in my bath water saved my life. pure technical oil. You should get it at your large pharmacy stores. It makes an oily layer in the water and on your skin, preventing the itch. But the downside is that you will have to take baths.
@Shanaya Brah then you should watch this video again. It can help you.
So like whenever it gets cold (rainy cold), i get itchy
When my finger nails grow even by a point of a millimeter i get itchy
When i use cold water to bath, i get super super itchy
If i don't stay long enough in bath water or the shower, i get itchy
If i sleep topless, i get itchy (on certain fabrics)
What might my problem be?
I recently moved to Houston from CA. and started itching, I think it might me the water, i dont get red skin or bumps just so itchy everywhere
I've heard this from a tonne of my patients! Not specifically about California triggering itch, but that as soon as they moved to a new city, they started to get a bunch of skin problems. There's a complex interaction between internal and external factors that can cause our skin to become sensitive. The sunlight, humidity, air purity, types of native pollen, dust mites - etc! All of these can mean that some people just 'do worse' in some cities. I hope in you're case it's a short term problem and you get to the bottom of it!
@@usamasyed what could be the possible causes of itchiness when you move to a new city?
Im from California to and my skin has gone crazy since coming to Houston
Winter ..my body is so dry and my scalp itches and my hair is falling out why
.
What about itch in hands and feet feeling like a crawling effect w little red bumps that happen in areas like hair, face, upper backs necks etc? Can itching that animals have make painfull stinging itches in humans? That gets worse in the warmer weather?
Recommend getting evaluated in person as a lot depends on physical examination findings!
Please what causes an itch as if your skin are moving or something??
It happens mostly at night which cause difficulty in sleeping. And mostly on your laps to your legs area.
Same here ooh
My skin becomes suddenly very itchy for no reason and if i scratch the part where it's itchy, tiny bumps form with liquid inside if i scratch the tiny bumps the liquid inside it comes out, or my skin just itches alot alot and if i scratch it i end up ruining my skin. It seems i also have hives.. it's been over a year now I'm so sick of this it's troubling me so much
I have ichy cafes, the only way to relieve this is very very hot water. It's like my ichy skin is satisfied until the burning. That when I stop and the iche goes away. This ends up with dry skin, I put aloe vera for now. My Dermatolgist has no idea and know reminds. What now?
This invisble stuff is attacking me. Feels like bugs is on me, but nothing is there. Every time I sit down in my house or lay down, i feel attacked. It itches, and feels like something is crawling on me constantly. This been happening for years. Sometimes it goes away for about 3-4 days, then it comes back. And my bed and walls are full of this small sand type stuff that pops up randomly. Sometimes even black hairs. This stuff is crazy. This stuff attacks my legs, feet, chest, and face. Even hair.
Fleas maybe?
Sir when I consume alcohol , next day I have red bumps on my hands and legs , and I fill very itchy. How can I get rid from this problem?
Dr I wrote to you before now I am having a very bad itching in back of my head and shoulders besides in another places but not all the time, right I am in a withdrawal of gabapentin and I not sure that this could be also a symptoms of the withdrawal or not. I went to see a dermatologist he didn't take any blood test or anything he just gave me a corticosteroid shampoo and cream nothing else I was very disappointed because I was expecting more I hate to take benadryl but I can't find other ways to stop the itching, what do you recommend please I am desperate thank
@Shanaya Brah Sorry I was looking to drobela the only thing I see is from herpes and I don’t have herpes as far as I know my itchy comes from inside and in my neck, shoulders and back of my head nothing outside just itchy
@Shanaya Brah ok I am going to try to see if something different happens but all I saw was remedies from herpes
Hmmm I’m currently having this issue right now and it just happened recently and mostly occur at night. When a part of my body starts to itch and I scratch it, the part and the nearby area starts to itch. And when I start to scratch the itchy part it continues to spread and becomes more itchy. And when I try to stop scratching there is this unbearable intense prickly feeling that I have to either scratch or slap it off😅 but it never goes away. However sometimes the itchiness just goes away on its own or go to another part of my body. It was mentioned here that it could be a new product that I’ve been using and I remember using a new perfume. So I’ll try to discontinue the use of that and see if there are any changes.
Thank you doctor for good information. Do you have any video for only hand and feet itching only in night time before bed time ?
Not yet! But I can add it to my list!
@Shanaya Brah Recently I went to a place with 100% humidity in rainy season and stayed for one month, I had no issues, after returning back to 40% humidity it started again, doctors told that it is kind of auto-immune issue !!!
Hi Doc, Im worried that I've got red bumps which are very itchy after vaccinations, mostly in legs and at the back. Is it because of vaccine?
Yes because am having it aslo after taking covid 19 vaccine and muscle twitching.do you still having it
Hot shower tends to make your skin really dry. Try cold shower, thank me later.
Cold shower? Not with a minus 0 degree.

Hi Doctor,
Can you help me ? I have itchy skin all over my body with no rash. I have been tested for
allergies and have had all my organs check out and all has come back clear.
I have had light therapy but with no luck.
This has been going on now for over four years now.
I am at the end of my tether and am desperate!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Mike
Wish I could help, Mike, but short of the general advice I can provide through my videos I can’t do much for specific cases, which can only be helped with individual consultations with in person doctors!
I have itchy skin without any redness or marks in my body. My face has dermatitis that gets triggered sometimes and doesn’t heal but recently my doctor prescribed an ointment but by body itch is not going away even after doing allergy test and only some foods are told to be removed which i actually dont even eat normally but with the prescribed pill its not going away. Specially hands(arms) and legs are very itchy. There is no redness or marks but i have bumbs like thing thats on my back and back of the neck but just few, its confusing and the doctor did not even check it out. They dont even check properly just hurry to prescribe pills and tests. Doctors do not care so i just dont want to wwaste money but my itchyness is affecting my normal life.
Hey ...I am having the exact same problem .... What did the doctor say to u ??
SAME HERE
I tried a bunch of over the counter ointments and creams. I felt like Jesus was telling me to use honey, so I did. And my skin stopped itching(it felt a little tingly for a while, but after that no itch)
@@spiritualknowledge1707 said nothing
I have been itching for a few months now :( Mainly my arms, and at times my legs and back. I'm wondering if I have primary biliary cholangitis (meet a couple other symptoms, but not too serious) or brachioradial pruritus (pain in the middle part of my spine). I'm already using fragrance free products and I don't think I have dry skin. However, I have also been diagnosed with keratosis pilaris. After scratching, small bumps form and my skin turns red.
Getting blood tested/scanned is so expensive 😩 It's going to cost me hundreds of dollars. I'm scared. This also got worse after I contracted covid. I was exposed to a relative, unfortunately. Any other tips or advice?
Hey! If you're someone who has keratosis pilaris, this is almost always associated with having dry/eczema prone skin. Even if you don't think you have dry skin, I'd advise you to generously apply moisturiser to your skin 2-3 times daily for a week and see if it helps!
Covid is a scam hahaha wake up
@@soul-lf6oy ratio
We're same
Same here but it’s cause of mosquitoes lol
After i have taken contraceptive pills i started to get itchy skin.. i wanted to stop taking it but not this time because im not yet ready to get pregnant.. i have been using kojic acid soaps that i think triggers my dry & itchy skin also.. i also have used a lot of lotions still not effective still other parts of my body is too itchy
My skin becomes very red and warm to touch when at the peak of discomfort (usually takes a few days to get to this stage). The surface of the skin feels soft and is not dry, but still flakey somehow?? If I scratch, the skin blanching lasts for at least 20 minutes, leaving me with very pink/red skin with white scratch streaks all over. Incredibly sensitive to external temperatures - both low or high. The best way to describe would be to compare it to having sunburn, but with extreme itching. The only thing that stops the ordeal is steroid cream (all over the body). It's usually gone within 48 hours of the application, which is a huge relief. But I still do not know the cause.
Can anyone else resonate with this?
Dr. MD.

My advice is - please take 1) tablet ranitidine 300 mg. 2 times daily before food. 2 ) tablet amitriptyline start with 25 mg 2 times daily for 2 weeks then build up the dose up to 25 mg at morning , 25 mg at afternoon , 50 my at night before bed. I hope it will help you.😮
Bhut achey muy bueno.

Okay I need help my skin flares up for no particular reason and has been doing this for about 2 years. It is worse at night when I am in bed itchy all over. I have seen my doctor numerous times and he has given me every antihistamines you can think off. It is driving me crazy. I am starting to be exhausted during the day as I do not get a good nite sleep because of being itchy. I have used creams, shampoo creams, moistoring creams nothing is working
Hi , I am mariner I am in ship , I am getting hitching from last few days , after taking citrizine tablet itching reduces for 2 days and reappear again . Wat can be reason ?
Sounds like potential allergy! But impossible to tell without examination in person
I get extremely itchy every night right before bed. It’s so bad that sometimes I can’t sleep because my skin feels alive it’s so itchy. Also after I shower I get itchy. The water isn’t very hot. And I use a lotion/soap that’s organic & made from all natural ingredients. Even after I use the lotion I’m still itchy. I’m 27 yrs old and take no medication and have no health issues. Would love to know your opinion!
Hey! It's impossible to say over the internet, but there are conditions known as 'urticarias' which can cause sudden itchiness, and these can be triggered by various different factors. Some of the most common include high heat, cold temperatures, exercise, sun exposure, *water exposure* or pressure on the skin. This may be what is happening in your case! I encourage you to discuss it with a local dermatologist! (Also, itch caused by anything is always worst at night, because we lay there without other stimuli and become extra aware of our skin!)

Thanks for your video. But I have a question about my personal problem that is my body get itching at night but mostly my head and back a few years ago they did a allergies test and it came back that I was allergic to things that I had no idea for example bleach, dust, cat and dogs hairs and the list goes on I started getting a shot I was better for awhile but the test was my pain Management Dr that did it and lately the itching is getting worse I'm going to the Dr next week but in meantime I started looking here RUclips and everything is from cancer to things I can't even pronounced. Help if you any answer please 🙏 thank you 😊
I'm having the same problem and I too am worried it might be cancer. I hope yours wasn't and you were able to find the problem.
Any results
I always gets these weird itches,like the feeling of pinching, all over my body, especially my hands, at night time
They started happening a week ago and they always stop during the day time
Doctor please help me,if it's something small i don't want to go to the doctor for no reason
Hello doctor, i think my case is abit different but still it's about itching. It's almost two months now when my smallest finger on the right hand side itchches me
I NEED HELP my body started itching after I started wearing jackets, jersey or hoodies because it's cold. My body is obviously rubbing against the clothing, and with the continuous rubbing it results in static electricity developing all of my body on the skin and which is irritating😣. I'm getting little static shocks or zaps⚡all over and it itches badly.😔
What can I do😭😭🦖?
Sir as soon as I do some physical work or can say like studying for hours or even when I'm eating my lunch, a sudden itching happens and in my case it generally happens on the back , chest and on my head, it's not a normal itch, it's like some current or spark travels through my body,which goes slowly and steadily when I rub/scratch it,can say through my observations whenever heat is produced through any physical work,I feel a unusual itch...... doctor can u pls tell me any remedy ory symptoms scientific name so that I could do a study for that and cope up with this problem
Check out 'cholinergic urticaria' which may be useful to read about!

My chest abs back and shoulders itch if I get a little stressed or excited. What could it be?
Same have you figured it out?
Please doctor help me my skin inches is getting out of hand what should I do
I eat well. I drink plenty of water. I exercise. I don't smoke. I'm a hygenice person. So I'm not sure why I've been itching relentlessly at night for the past week. I itch so bad, I scratch and cut the skin. I itch all over too. Ears, head, scalp, face, legs, arms, stumach, chest. Soles of feet occasionally. But the itching only happens at night. Full force too. Right now it feels unbeatable. I've booked a doctor phone conselatation for Monday next week. Could you please advice me on what's my best bet till then? It would be massively appreciated on my end. This itching is driving me Bananas. Could it be fungal related?
@Shanaya Brah stfu scammer
@Daniela Evans, I have same problem now, same situation. I eat well, excercise and have exact symptoms you mentioned.
Wondering if you figured out the root cause
How you doing brother?
Bro any news
I have the same thing like you. The difference is day or night it doesn't matter it's torcher, it increases in heat.
Dr my itchy is most my arms and hand but recently I started having itchy in my necks and upper back I don’t know the reason, I am using every product is for dry and itchy skin and unscented and also I wash everything from my clothes to sheets with a soap for sensitive skin, now somebody in RUclips recommended Vaseline instead of cream they found it more effective
Vaseline is very effective as a moisturiser because it is the most ‘occlusive’ (meaning it keeps in the most water) of almost any ingredient! Some people find it hard to use regularly as it can feel too greasy/ sticky, but it’s worth a try! You should also see your local derm who can see if you would benefit from any prescription medications!
@@usamasyed thank you for the information I was aware about the Vaseline but I didn’t know it could work that better I already went to see a dermatologist and she just told me that I have a very dry skin and the allergist did all possible test and nothing came out to why I am so itchy all the time, the dr told me to buy Sarna cream to calm the itchy and even that crean I have to by the sensitive because he regular one the smell was very strong for me. I am going to try the Vaseline at least it will help my pocket
@@sirenagarrido3836 how are you doing now?
@@shrawanthapa1835 No to good more allergies than never besides the skin lately I’ve been developing food allergies that is making me crazy not just for the skin itchiness also becoming very sensitive to a lot of food something I never have before and I found out that probably because my Immune system is very low I think I have candida for all the symptoms so I going to start a treatment and see if that can help me find a balance
Here's a strange one. I started getting random itchy sensations about five years ago, but only when I'm laying down in bed at night. I'm okay during the day. I take an antihistamine every other day to keep the itchiness down. Where I itch is so random -- one night it's my feet, the next on my back, etc. Doc and dermatologist says it's because I'm a women over 50, which they tell me is not unusual. I'm still wondering why this only affects me when I'm prone at night. No one seems to have the answer to this one.
I have the exact same ptoblem...we should talk
@@Crystal-fv7fuim 18 and the exact same thing happens to me, but instead of the majority of the itches being on my legs etc they happen on my hands,right now as im speaking its nighttime for me and it's itching on my fingers on the left hand
I'm 42 and have same thing. Started about 6mnths ago! Hellllpppp!
Could be dust mites
Dust mites, bed bugs, parasites. These are all active at night in particular.
Thank you doctor I have a two year old son he has skin itching and after scratching it swallows it what canbe the problem
recommend getting him evaluated in person by a doctor!
