Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Problems like scabies should be ruled out in your case. It usually comes in burrowing like rashes. If it is not that then it can be due to allergy. Antihistamines like benadryl and local calamine lotion application will be helpful. If that is not helping then approach your GP and you might need corticosteroids in such case.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
