Answers:
Sounds like you are allergic to something!. Did you recently change detergents, or get new clothes!? A sudden onset of skin irritation is often caused by something in the environment that you have come into contact with!. Some people are sensitive to the perfumes and dyes used in detergents, which then get all over your clothes and thus all over your skin!. Some are allergic to grass--did you go hang out in a park and sit or lay down on the lawn!? Have you gone hiking recently--you could have been exposed to poison oak or poison ivy (depending on where you are)!. Some people have that type of reaction around animals they are allergic too, as well!.

My guess is that, no matter what the culprit is, the cause is an allergy!. If something has recently changed, see if it clears up be eliminating that thing!. If there isn't anything new that you know of, you will probably want to go to the doctor to find out whats up!. They will probably refer you to an allergist!.

Good luck!.!.!.itchy skin is no fun!. Try to get some anti-itch lotion in the mean time--no matter what the cause, the solution is not to scratch it! Aveno makes a great line of oatmeal based products that can help with itchy skin!. When I have had poison oak, I would take baths with their oatmeal bath packets!.!.!.very soothing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This sounds like hives!. There are many antihistamines out there!. Benadryl works well, but makes you drowsy so take it just at night!. Ask the pharmacist what to take for the daytime!. I tried Claritin and it worked pretty good!. In the meantime, Dr!. Weil (has a website) suggests "quercetin" so I am taking this!. It does something on a cellular level!. It is contained in apples, so I started eating organic apples!. I guess we will see how this works!. Your immune system has been thrown out of whack and this is probably an allergic reaction, commonly to food when it is the hives!. Keep a journal of what you have eaten!. I get hives at the onset of a cold or flu, around the time of my period, and if I have been upset!. But it is always triggered by a food !. Good luck!. Hydracortisone cream can help a little sometimes!. And don't use fabric softener in your wash, or too much detergent!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It could be a simple dry skin condition or worse!. First try to get rid of anything that can cause allergic reactions!. If you started taking any new otc pills stop them for now, if you can!. Stop using anything with fragrance, soap, lotion!. Wear cotton clothes!. If all that works, reintroduce what you stopped until it happends again and you know what the problem is!.

I would get it checked with a doctor just to be sure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Stress and Anxiety is most likely the cause!. If you just itch and rashes/welts dont appear until after you itch, its stress/anxiety!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Probably eczema, or an allergy reaction!.
