What Causes Severe Itching In The Body?

My dermatologist can not figure out what is wrong with me. Extreme itching underneath skin the only thing that helps is prednisone 10 mg. This is the same doctor that misdiagnosed that I had the mites for well over a year. Ever since then extreme itching. All my doctors want me to get off prednisone. Doctor says I don t have mites currently. This is making me crazy! Thank you karen

Hello,

There is a possibility of having scabies again.
Go to a doctor to see it with a magnifying glass.
Maybe you are infected again.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
