What Causes Itching In The Skin?

I have had consistent itchy skin for years. Its not scabies, its not fleas or any lice. It feels like some really tiny thing maybe worm like is coming out of my skin and moving around. Very often on my face, round the mouth, nose openings even around the ear openings. But everywhere on legs, arms. Its not every minute but at least every day. I can t see anything nor no one can diagnose anything like an alergy or anything like that. I have not been diagnosed for diabetes. Im not losing weight if anything I put on weigh too easily. I do not have diarhoea or nausea. I do not have jaundice. I do have psorosis on one part of my body. But that was there long before this strange sensation.

For itching in the skin you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or doxycycline after an expert opinion along with avil or cetrizine for severe itching and redness. You can use betnovate-c cream or candid-b powder for local application. Take some multivitamin as metilda-forte or meganeuron-plus once daily preferably in afternoon. If still the itching is persistent than you can take some steroids as suggested by your doctor.
