What Is The Cure For Itchy Skin, Swollen Lymph Nodes And Sore Throat?

I have had itchy skin for the past 6 weeks, mostly in the inner thighs and beltline, its like an allergic reaction to something, I saw a doctor who suspected it was yeast overgrowth. Just in the past 3 days I have very swollen lymph nodes under my chin and my throat is sore as well as swollen gums and multiple canker sores on my togue, cheeks, and gums. I usually never get canker sores.

HI The location of the itchy skin is more suggestive of scabies. This may be unrelated to the present problem of lymph nodes and mouth problem looks to be due to infection in oral cavity for which you need to take antibiotics and supportive medicines under your Doctor's advise.
