What Causes An Itching Sensation Around The Breast?

Hello! So its been around 2 months now, maybe 3 when i started an itching sensation around my breast. I had asked my mom if it was ok to be so itchy there, and she told me maybe it was because my breast were growing. A month passed by, and not only my breast were itching too, but my legs, thighs, arms, back, stomach, and in the back of my ears. i was getting worried, and went to my doctor. My doctor speaks a different language than i do, so sometimes we don't really understand each other. But in short terms he prescribed me Fluocinolone Acetoni (lotion) to apply where the itching occurred. && since that didn't work he then prescribed me Hydroxyzine HCL (tablets) to drink for the itching to stop. Its been maybe 2 weeks, and its still not working. I researched the medications, and i know they're for itchiness. is there something else i can do to prevent this?? By the way, i always apply lotion on my body after showering to keep my body moisturized, to not have dry skin. && i also tried changing detergent, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, ect. because i thought i had an allergic reaction. please help me!
