It is unbearable itching and then bumps from underthe skin develop and due to itching i have some scars one area developed MRSA. I just want to know why i am itching so much and how to stop it.....

Hi,
It seems that you may be having xerosis. It means dryness.And that is why you may be having itching. Keep the skin moist by applying moisturiser. Avoid soap bath. You may use dettol in water for bath. Take antihistaminics like levocetirizine daily till you get relief. Consult dermatologist and have confirmed diagnosis of skin condition. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
