Itch: We scratch because we itch. There are many reasons to itch ranging from allergic reaction to hives to eczema to liver disease to meds to plain dry skin. Check out http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/guide/skin-conditions-pruritus & http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/itchy-skin/basics/definition/con-20028460. Then go see your Family Doc for evaluation & appropriate treatmen
