What Is The Cause Of Itching Neck And Chin When Suffering From Bronchial Illness?

I am curious about something I have had for what seems like my whole life. Every time I get any kind of bronchial illness my neck and chin itch. It is like I want to scratch the skin off. Right now I have a cold that feels as if it is going into bronchitis and my neck is itching terribly. Can you please tell me what may be causing the itching? I am a Caucasian female, 35 years of age, 5 2 and weigh about 140 lbs.

Are you taking steroid for bronchial asthma. Some time this can cause itching, so is other medications like monteleukost like tablets. Are you also having any redness, erythema also. If yes then you have to see a dermatologist. If no other symptoms than you can continue without being working. If too much itching than take atarax tablet with consultation of your physician. .
