I have had an itching problem since I was about 11.?

Question: I will itch areas until they draw blood sometimes, but so much anymore, but I get little bumps when I itch, and I can't stop itching either. I have tried many lotions, the gentlest body-washes & soaps, but they sometimes make it worse. What the heck?

Answers:
Itching may not always be from an allergy. It is also a symptom of diabetes. I hope you have talked with a doctor about this. However, even though I have had allergies, some of my itching was from undetermined causes. I found that if I used baby oil at the end of my showers, I got a lot of relief. After I have rinsed well, I simply start at the neck and squirt baby oil down front and back. Then I shower spray from the top and let the oil cover me from neck to feet. Then I pat myself dry with a thick towel. NO HARD RUBBING; this takes the lotion off. I have found wonderful relief from itching and have soft skin too. I've told others to try this and they, too, have had relief. If you continue to have problems, please see your doctor.
