Horrible itching with no rash. prednisone makes it stop not antihistamine. blood work shows nothing. 5 weeks now. what is it and how stop itching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Itching: there is a condition known as stress induced urticaria that can cause this. If you are anxious, seek help and your itching may be better. There may also be other causes that just do not cause a rash, so keep getting evaluated and worked up as needed. Best wishes.
