Hi,

Such itching can be due to just dryness of skin, allergy, fungal infection. Detailed skin examination can help diagnosis. Blood examination and allergy tests can confirm. Please consult a skin specialist for specific help. Try with application of body moisturiser mixed with steroid skin creams. No relief in few days indicates oral medication so see the specialist.

Thank you. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
