Itching all over the body is mostly suggestive of scabies. For treatment you can use calamine or scaboma lotion for application over whole body below neck once stat after taking bath with warm water along with avil or cetrizine for severe itching. You can take tab bandy-plus one stat at night than after 7 days with some multivitamin like metilda-forte or neurobian-plus once daily.
