Help! i am very itchy after taking a shower 2 days ago it's driving me insane, no rash, hives, or swelling why am i so horribly itchy?

Dry skin/soap: Have you introduced a new shampoo, soap, hair conditioner into your routine lately? If so, you may have developed a contact allergy to one of its ingredients. A more likely scenario is dry skin causing the itching and you may try applying a moisturizer on your skin immediately after bathing to see if this helps (may take a few days). If the problem persists, see your doctor
