Hello Dr Aadil here welcome to HCM , well there can be a few causes . one should rule out any worm infestation that might be causing you to itch, any contact allergies to clothes/ jewelry etc, your bedding. Scabies can present like this but as you say you are a very keen hygienist so that is less likely. You can get your Complete blood count & absolute eosinophil count done with your liver function tests that will tell us about the likely cause
