Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of tingling and itching on random places of body. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like sinusitis , diabetes , depression , multiple sclerosis , deficiency of vitamin B 12 or anemia. It could be due to contact dermatitis as well due to certain allergen. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult general practitioner for proper examination . Doctor may order blood test , CT scan for sinusitis or stool test to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe iron supplement , vitamin B or may refer you to endocrinologist for diabetes like problem or orthopedic surgeon for problem like multiple sclerosis . For now drink plenty of water stay calm , keep yourself relax , do meditation and yoga and eat healthy . Sometimes the symptoms also occur due to allergic reaction side effects of certain medicine .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
