A member asked:

83 yr female. no new meds or detergents. itching on outside hip area, both sides. no rash or visable dry skin. duration 2 months.

Itching: This is a complicated issue that cannot be dealt with online without a detailed history of the patient's previous conditions and medications, you should speak to her doctor about the symptoms, they know her best and can refer her accordingly.

A member asked:

I have been having extremely itchy skin. Starts on hands and feet. Sometimes on the rest of my body. There are no marks to show any signs of rash. That is until I claw myself to death. Wondered if it may be a sign of diabetes. Never had this before. Lotion does not help. I have not changed any kind of soap or shampoo or detergent. I can take a Benadryl and it will stop. Itching?
