What Does Itching All Over The Body Indicate?
My husband has had itchy skin all over his body for the last 5 weeks. It moves around his body, sometimes it will reduce, others times it is everywhere. There will be red bumps that look similar to shingles, but without pain, just severe itching. Heat can increase the itching.

Hi
Thanks for trusting healthcaremagic for your health problem.
Without examining the lesions it's difficult to diagnose.
You have to consult dermatologist for that.
Till that itching can be relieved by Tablet Levocetrizine 5 mg 12 hourly.
You can also apply calamine lotion on lesions.
Regards
Dr. Hiren
