Itchy skin, also known as pruritus, is an irritating, annoying and uncontrollable sensation that makes you want to scratch to relieve the feeling.
The itching usually affects specific areas and is accompanied by other signs, such as redness, irritation, bumps and blisters.
Sometimes itchiness lasts a long time and can be really intense.
As you rub or scratch the area, it gets itchier – the more it itches, the more you scratch. Breaking this itch-scratch cycle can be difficult, but continued scratching can damage your skin to bleed or cause infection.
The possible causes for itchiness
- Senile pruritus – during old age due to dehydration and extreme dryness of skin.
- Skin conditions – such as eczema (dermatitis), psoriasis, burns, scars
- Parasitic infestations – such as scabies
- Insect bites, stings, hives
- Bacterial or fungal infections – such as athlete’s foot or vaginal thrush
- Hormonal changes during pregnancy or the menopause
- Itching on the whole body may be a symptom of an underlying illness, such as liver or kidney disease, anemia, diabetes, thyroid problems, multiple myeloma or lymphoma.
- Nerve disorders e.g., multiple sclerosis, pinched nerves and shingles (herpes zoster).
- Psychiatric conditions such as anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression.
- Irritation and allergic reactions from wool, chemicals, soaps and other substances can irritate the skin and cause rashes and itching. Sometimes the substance, such as poison ivy or cosmetics, causes an allergic reaction. Also, reactions to certain drugs, such as narcotic pain medications (opioids) can cause itchy skin.
- Lack of cleanliness
- Excessive sweating
- Wearing woolen underclothes
