What Causes Itchiness And Sharp Pain In The Arms?

My whole body is feeling itchy and I have this sharp pain in my arm when anything rubs against it. My heart was beating really fast but it seems to have slowed down. This all started about an hour after I tried some smoke less tobacco and I m wondering if that could be the cause.

It can be due to some fungal infection for which you can take antibiotics like cefadroxyl or zifi-cv after an expert opinion along with cetrizine or Avil itching or radness. Apply clonet lotion or clo-trimazole cream locally over the affected area. You can take steroids if not improved with above treatment.
