Several poss causes: Itching has no cause. Possible causes are allergies to something, drug reactions, possible kidney disease, and even anxiety to name a few. If you are itching to the point of bleeding from scratching, then get a good physical exam to properly diagnose and treat the condition. Good luck!

Several possibilitie: Without a complete health evaluation it would be impossible to give a cause to your symtoms. It could be circulatory, allergic or irritant, stress or systemic to name just a few. You need to make an appointment with your primary care doctor and/or a dermatologist for a proper evaluation.
