What Causes Severe Itching All Over The Body?
I am experiencing severe itching and have found no relief. I have what I think is chigger bites numbering around 100 between my neck and knees. Do I need to get a steroid shot. I have tried, oatmeal, chigger-ex, rubbing alcohol, calimine lotion nothing is working.

Hi,
You may need other medication to treat this infection. Some persons do not respond to initial treatment and require another course of medication to kill the cause.
It would be best to revisit your doctor and you may also need to retreat any household members and household items.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
