Scratching: Could be dry skin try Amlactin or use olive oil/ coconut oil when showering and then rinse off. Should also check kidney and liver function as can cause itching, as can bed bugs ,scabies ( usually on legs), thyroid disease, DM, calcium metabolism ,iron metabolism ,food allergies, rarely lymphoma.
