Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The itchy and painful feelings all over the body could be due to allergic dermatitis or a skin infection like fungal infection or scabies. A direct examination by a dermatologist is mandatory for proper diagnosis. The management will depend on the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
