Hi,
There are many causes of itching and for treating this symptom you need to find out the exact cause behind it. For instance scabies, urticaria, liver disorders and allergy are the most common causes behind it. Your history it is going in favour of SCABIES as itching predominantly occurs at night in cases of scabies and also itchy papules present over the body is the Hallmark of disease.
Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.
Regards,
Dr. Atishay Bukharia
