The best thing I can suggest for itching all over is a cool bath with some baking soda in the water. It MUST be cool. Hot water will only make itching worse. Good luck with that.

There are some meds that can cause itching as a side effect when you first start taking them-

Some opiate pain killers, also some meds for osteoperosis, not sure if there are others out there.

I've know 2 people 1 in each category who found Benadryl helpful...not sure if this would work for you, so best to speak with your pharmacist 1st to make sure it is safe for you to try.

Hope you feel better, LuLu

Usually Benedryl helps me - occasionally an oatmeal bath, although I've heard of baking soda too.....

Good luck!

Yes I get this a lot, all over. My scalp got so bad I shaved most of my head hair off. That did decrease the soreness of my scalp.

When I first removed refined sugar and caffeine from my diet I had a significant decrease in the all over my body itching for quite a period of time, but as I said above, some times it returns. It seems worse when I lay down, especially at night, it really interferes with my sleep.

I have issues with dry skin and I use Gold Bond medicated cream. It seems to help.

I would try organic jojoba oil all over. This assumes that something is making your skin dry/ react, something like a med. my daughter had that went to a zillion dermatologists, and she discovered jojoba almost accidentally.

At least, it won't hurt and you will have prettier skin :)

I do have all over from time to time; but I have dry skin. I rub coconut oil all over my skin. Also, I have a sugar sensitivity and notice it if I consume sugar. I have eliminated sugar from my diet and use the natural sweetener Stevia.

I meant to say: I do have all over itching............

Have you noticed that scratching does not relieve this itching? It is like the itching is at some deeper level than the surface of the skin. So frustrating.

Yes! Oh yes! My feet itch like crazy!! An itching I can't even explain and Benadryl does not help. Fibro causes so many problems that I hate to tell people about them because it makes me look like I'm complaining all the time. The only thing that helps with the itching is putting my feet in front of the fan and when the start to get cold the itching stops. But once the itching stops the pain sets in, my feet are very sensitive to cold. Pain I can handle, itching not so much.

Itching is a big issue for me as well. The back of my head can get really itchy and annoying and my abdomen as well.

I can stress out so bad that I start to itch and then I actually get hives. it is ridiculous but it happens and there is nothing I can do about it.

I have very dry skin. My niece owns goats and makes goatsoap from the milk.I feel so pampered when I bathe with it ...also when I have one of those mystery itching spots I dab on rubbing alcohol..this also helps stop the itch of mesquito bites

I can't figure out if I'm more itchy in the winter or summer but I do get itchy. But I think I can put some of it down to dry skin so using lotion or coconut oil can help. Consume the omega 3's. flax oil, hemp oil, fish oil.
Also the air we have in our homes can be too dry.
Air conditioning and dry air heating in the winter can dry us out. Got to hydrate and drink water and moisturizer skin.

I do get itchy scalp when I am hot. Heat makes me itchy. If I'm sweating and hot. I get super itchy. Crazy!

One time I was waking my dog and I got overheated and the itchies came on badly. I was hopping and jerking my body like I was having some kind of attack! But the itches were so "sharp" it made me do that. I tried to ignore and mentally overcome it but it got too much.
I ended up seeing a dumpster on my walk ...I know it's disgusting but I couldn't stand it any longer and I rubbed my back up against it like a bear! I then made it back to my home to cool off and Shower.
