Why is my skin itchy?
well if you live in a cold place (since its winter or if you live in like alaska) and there isnt a lot of moisture in the air....its probably just dry skin, so just try putting on some healing lotion - it cant do you any harm .... if it doesnt help at all or sooth it then ask a doctor or your parents or whatever
Reply:It may be dry winter skin itch. Try a skin moisturizer which is milk and unscented or one you have previously used. If that doesn't help, try to narrow it down to anything unusual you may have eaten (such as shellfish or nuts) in the past several days. Benadryl helps some people with itching %26amp; is available over the counter. Read the directions, it may make you drowsy. Of course, you can also call your doctor!

I know that some vitamin defeciencies can cause itchy skin. But, yours doesn't sound like that (with the redness). It is winter so it could be the weather. Also, lack of water is a huge reason for itchy skin. Bed bugs cause itchy skin as well.





To start, I would wash your bedding, take a shower and put lotion on right afterwards, drink tons of water (and no caffeine which actually dehydrates your body since it is a dieritic), take some vitamins and eat some all natural foods. Also, lower your intake of breads %26amp; pasta (which can also cause itchy skin).

Reply:Sometimes you may have unknowingly been exposed to a trigger. The trigger is causing an inflammation and an itch. You can use a OTC hydrocortisone cream for a short period and/or natural treatments. For ideas on natural treatments, search here http://www.eczemaskintreatment.com
