"Pruritis": is the medical term for itchiness and chronic prurtitis is unfortunately one of the most complex medical problems ....a few "simple" tests and a visit to a Dermatologist are a good start..testing of LIVER function (especially the so called "obstructive" liver tests ,kidney function and some allergy testing  are a beginning. NOT TO WORRY  but your SYMPTOM needs a solution and treatment

Question 4

my 5 year old son wakes up itching all over his body ans whereever he itches, skin becomes red there. happening since last 2 mornings?

Accepted Answer

Itch begets itch: Your 5 year old son has sensitive skin and might be dry. There is a term called dermatographism when you turn red in the areas that you scratch.  This redness looks like hives.  There is no known cause, but sometimes heat makes it worse and antihistamines help. Cool refrigerated moisturizers always help too.

Question 5

Question 6

itching all over the body. no rash nothing at all. it just itches a lot all over. i put baby oil after i bath still its not okay!! :(?

Accepted Answer

See dermatologist: If the itching is so bothersome, you should consult a dermatologist since dry skin is apparently not the issue. The itch pathway is far more complex than we had thought and no longer just a matter of histaminic action.  (I assume you have tried antihistamine already. If not, you may give it a try).

Question 7

my fianc and i both have been itching uncontrollably all over the body for a few months now. no visable symptoms except irritation from the scratchin?

Accepted Answer

Scabies or crabs?: Assumimg you are sexually active or sharing a bed with your partner, scabies and pubic lice (crabs) are possible. Go together to a doctor or clinic. It shouldn&#x27;t be difficult to sort this out. In the meantime, don&#x27;t be worried. It probably isn&#x27;t serious. Good luck!

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Many possible  cause: You need to ask your  physician: It can be allergy, a skin probem, a tumor or a liver problem to name a few. You will need to be evaluated to help answer  your question. We call this pruritis.

Question 9

Itchy: Itching may sometime be a sign of a more serious illness. Check with your internist, or a dermatologist.

Question 10
