Hi ajay

Welcome to healthcare magic.

Itching all over the body can be due to many causes, especially allergy to foods or medications or any infections, viral or fungal.

If its severe and you dont know the cause , its best to consult your physician who can examine her, take detailed history and provide exact diagnosis and treatment in the form of anti histaminics anti allergen medications like cetrizine or fexofenadine.he may also advice you local calamine lotion application for soothing relief.if she has any other symptom like rash, fever or breathing difficulty or swelling of body them take consult your doctor immediately.if it has been since many days with no other symptoms then consult a dermatologist (skin specialist)

Thanks
