Suggest Treatment For Foot Itching After A Bariatric Surgery

Question: I have sudden itching that starts on my foot in one place and then goes crazy and won't stop. A couple of pin pricks appear and then the itching goes crazy. Happens at home or overseas so not bedbugs. I have had bariatric surgery and it has started since then. Only thing that helps is antihistamine orally. Help! Tonight it's the right foot. Mostly happens at night. It stopped for a while and has started again.
