What Causes Unbearable Itchiness On My Right Hand?
Every morning my right hand itchy s to the point that I can actually make my fingers bleed by scratching them. The fingers tingle and once you start to scratch the itchy ness becomes intense. If you can call an itch pleasurable than the is. After itching they feel a little numb and then the sensation will go off until tomorrow morning. No rash, no dryness just seriously itchy. Ny ideas?

Hi,
You seem to have generalised pruritus of unknown origin. As there is no external lesions, there may be internal cause. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. He might Thouroughly examin you and investigate to find out some cause. Antihistaminic like levocetirizine may be taken till relief of itching. The cause may be treated by your doctor. You may be alright. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
