Itching All Over From Top To Bottom. No Bumps Or Rashes. What Could Be The Reason?
I am itchy all over my body from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. There is not one spot that has not itched in over 3 days now. I don't have any bumps except the ones I made from scratching. I looked up scabies and wondered about that, but I don't have a rash. We just recently let a girl move in with us and I am wondering if it could be that. Can you catch something like that off of furniture or anything like that?

hello dear, welcome to healthcare magic, Itching all over body could be due to various reasons, firstly scabies, which u doubt, let me tell you that in scabies there is an aggravation of itch in night time, rash and superficial furrow which is mostly linear, begins in extremities most commonly, does not spread through furniture or any object, most commonly spreads through skin to skin contact.Your itching looks like allergic origin, you have consumed something or used something allergic on your skin.Have you changed your cosmetics?Also get your blood sugar level checked as even in diabetes such an itch is experienced.All the best.have a healthy day.thanks
