Question 1

inside of my nose is peeling, raw and very itchy. back of throat itches as well. could this be from allergies?

Accepted Answer

Very likely: Allergies can directly affect the nose and throat with itching and burning.  Nasal drainage can also aggravate throat symptoms.  Try otc like allegra, claritin, zyrtec, benadryl (diphenhydramine).

Question 2

i woke up two mornings ago with a very itchy back that soon spread to my entire body. severe itching and sensitive skin. i feel completely healthy.

Accepted Answer

Medication?: The top two reasons that come to mind would be a medication reaction, if you are taking medication, vs. Possibly a contact dermatitis; have you recently changed laundry soap or softener?

Question 3

i have a rash on my back (for over three years now). it looks like the christmas tree rash but im not sure. its spread from just my lower back to the upper back as well as the inner elbows. it itches and sometimes it gets bigger?

Accepted Answer

: Your lesion would require medical history, visualization and possible testing to be able to provide an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan.

Question 4

i have a inner boil on my back thigh with no head. everytime i touch it or when i wash and i run a rag across it,it hurts and itches at the same time. it also feels like a tender hole behind my skin. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Boil/ sebaceous cyst: This sounds like , you may have  either a deep  sebaceous cyst or an ingrown hair. Apply moist heat   to the affected area, if it does not come to her head within a few days I highly suggest you see a surgeon for further evaluation and treatment. You may need to have this area opened  and and explored. Take Care .
It could also be just a fatty tumor , except for the pain .

Question 5

what does it mean if my inner ear itches and when it does the back of my throat does too?

Accepted Answer

Eustachian tube: You may have some bacteria in the eustachian tube area.  Get a rx for Peridex (chlorhexidine gluconate) from your dentist.  This is a liquid that you can have soak (not swish) in you mouth to disable bacteria and assist in the healing of irritated and sore tissue.  The nih results was that this solution will soak into the tissue and time release over the next 12 hours.

Question 6

i have a place. on my back that allways itches?

Accepted Answer

Itchy Back: Too bad i cannot see exactly where this itchy spot is on your back. If it's near the shoulder blade, on one side, there is a condition called brachioradial pruritus. It is thought that this condition may be a result of a long-ago injury to some of the vertebrae in your spine. Your general physician would be in better shape to see exactly where this "place" is.

Question 7

what can i use for a spot on my back that constantly itches?

Accepted Answer

Itchy spot: 1st thing: why the itchy spot is there?  Could represent anything from dry skin to contact dermatitis to neuralgia to an infection or even a skin cell cancer.  If dry skin, changing soap to dove, tone or caress, warm (not hot!) showers, patting dry skin & applying moisturizer works well. Fungal infections need antifungals; allergy: topical steroids/ antihistamines, abnormal lesion: dermatologist!

Question 8

i have been inflicted with  an excision on my back about a week ago and it itches soooo bad i'm going nuts ! is it suppose to itch this bad ?

Accepted Answer

EXCISION?: ARE YOU SAYING YOU HAD SOMETING REMOVED FROM YOU BACK? APPLY SOME LOTION AND SEE A DOCTOR TO INSPECT YOU SKIN.

Question 9

he has a dry patch at his inner thighs been there since i met him it itches him its white, flakey & bleeds. he is a large man & his thighs are close?

Accepted Answer

Skin infection: This could be a kind of skin infection called a yeast infection. This usually starts on warm, moist areas of skin, like under skin folds. It can be treated with creams. I suggest letting a doctor take a look at it first though to verify what kind of rash it might be.

Question 10

i have small bite like bug bite, it stays for like a week to two weeks and it itches what might be cause and what can i use to treat it, i go out when i come back home i see another bite and i was not at home?

Accepted Answer

Maybe not a bite: This may not be a bite. Possible reaction to contact with something else outside your home. Best to have it checked/looked at  so that it can be properly diagnosed and proper treatment can be recommended.
