The creases of my elbow get really itchy and i end up scratching until it's sore and bleeds. the skin is not dry. whats causing it, how do i treat it?

Eczema: See a dermatologist. The most likely diagnosis is eczema. You should respond to a prescription cortisone. Meanwhile try OTC hydrocortisone cream.
