Dear thanks for the question.

There are two possibility in your case. Hypersensitive skin or psychological disorder. I would first suspect psychological disorder. You need to visit a psychotherapist or psychiatrist available in your area. You need to under go detailed examination and assessment of your conditions and take treatment as soon as possible. Recovery is better, faster and complete if you visit doctor early. You might have to take anti anxiety medicines. Remember treatment lasts longer, don't quit in middle without doctor's advise.

For hypersensitive skin you need to take cetrizine tablet. Meet skin expert if no relief.

I hope my reply will benefit you. Please write feedback. I wish you good health. Thank you
