Question: My wife has itching over her whole body. she gets little sore spots on her chest stomach and legs. Her dermotologist doesn't seem to know what it is. Please help
Brief Answer:
Age related dryness or eczematous rash
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
According to your complaints it could be due to age related dryness or eczematous rash.
I would recommend you to apply a potent topical steroid like clobetasol propionate cream diluted in a moisturising lotion in the ratio of 1:3 on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet cetrizine 10 mg once or twice daily depending on the intensity of itching.
Potent topical steroid are prescription drugs and you need to see the doctor in person to get them.
