Answers:
Itching is an inflammatory response!. Your body identifies the allergen as a foreign invader!. It then seeks to protect itself with the production of histamines!. However, it does not know when to stop this production even if the allergen is no more there!. The excess production causes the inflammatory response and induces an itch or rash!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
