What can i do for itchy skin? can you develop allergies overnight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Moisturizing can be helpful. Usually allergies do not cause itching all over unless you've come in contact with something. On OTC anti-histamine could help determine if it's an allergy, if the itching gets better when you take it.
