Itching: quite a few possibilities here, ranging from general skin dryness to allergic reactions. Some people get itchiness when they are stressed or anxious. I would suggest trying Benadryl (diphenhydramine) according to package instructions, and if this gives some relief, use it as needed. If not getting better, or if other symptoms develop, see your doctor for other treatment options.
