Itchy Skin: Are you having any other symptoms, like fatigue, weight loss, stomach aches, change in bowel habits, yellow skin, or fever? The causes can be many, and include neuritis/neuropathy, as well as dermatologic. Without a medical history, it is hard to say. If it doesn't go away, i would make an appointment with your doctor and have a thorough evaluation and a battery of lab tests to narrow it down.
