Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

As per your case history of generalized itching, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid scratching the skin as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a soothing lotion like calamine lotion on affected region twice daily.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetirizine twice daily for seven to ten days.
4. Other treatment options are an oral steroid, hydroxyzine has taken only after consulting a dermatologist.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regard,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
