Suggest Treatment For Itchy Rashes Throughout Body

I m a 50 year old mail I had this break out on my skin. The rash covers pretty much the entire body 70%. The itching has been horrible but seems to be fine during the day and at night the itching starts. I put Vaseline in areas and nothing changes but doesn t get worse. It seems when I put bad alone in an area the spots come up somewhat else. Sometimes it feels like something crawling under skin but it just maybe the itch coming on . Please help this gone on for two years now.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Your problem appears mostly due to allergy. Please use moisturizer cream or lotion on itchy areas as dryness is one of the cause for itching. Stop using vaseline. You can take levocitrizine 10mg tab once a day for 3 days and then if necessary.
Your condition should improve in a day or two.
