What Causes Itching In The Arms And Legs?

terribly itchy legs and arms - with welt-like marks as well as track-like marks and black and blues from scratching. Looks like scabies -- which I had once before - around 2 yrs ago. But suddenly I have blistering and swelling just inside my lips - the top two corners in particular. My throat feels a bit raw too, and I m a little worried that I may, for some reason, have an anaphylactic reaction - but I have no idea to what. I took Benedryl

Hi
Thanks for posting on health magic
As you have mentioned that you had scabies two years ago, and your current symptoms suggest it too, it might be a recurrence of scabies
So do not delay and consult to dermatologist
