What Causes Itching Sensation And Soreness On The Abdominal Area?

I have raised marks on my stomach, many are in my stretch marks. As of late my whole stomach area is very itchy and sore. And it is very painful. I have used Aloe and Calamine lotion and to no avail does not help at all and it is getting worse. I have spent most summers in the sun since I was little. I am 52 years old and of course not pregnant. I have lost both parents to cancer, but not skin. What might this be? It is not a rash, as I use only no dye and no perfumes laundry soap and have use the same product for years
