What Causes Itching All Over The Body?

My whole body itches from head to toe! It itch so bad it s like a burning itch and It happens if I get nervous, if I walk briskly, if I m upset, sexual, or just walking from the house to the car. Also when I get hot..... Or emotional. What in the world could be causing this to happen. If it gets really bad, hives start to pop up. Could I have liver problems?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood your history of itching all over the body.
It is burning itch and is enhanced by emotional upsets, nervousness, sexual upsets, walking ultimately getting hives.
You history is self-explanatory.

I would advise you thefollowing:
Tests of blood, urine and stool
Medicines;
Antihistamine, oral steroids, dewormin and most importantly anti-psychotic medicine to have a proper control.
This will help.
Since the perfect cause is not known, the treatment is also empirical and over time you will know which medicines work the best for you.
I find this answer helpful
