Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

Itching can be due to a number of causes. Most common includes allergy followed by dermatological infections like scabies. if i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following measures:

- cetirizine one at night for 5 days
- wash/change bedding thoroughly.

Hopefully you will see improvement in 2-3 days BUT if conditions remains same or aggravates then you need to visit hospital for further workup.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
