Suggest Treatment For Severe Itching On The Back Of The Neck
I have an itch that began 4-6 weeks ago at the base of my hairline on the back of my neck.(without rash symptoms that I can see, other than irritation to scratching the affected area). I have treated with ta tree oil, without relief. Also, an over the counter anti itch cream. Could possibly be caused by heat.
Hi, Thanks for writing your query. After reading your post, I would advise that you can take antihistamine like Fexofenadine 120 mg once a day along with local application of sreroid based skin cream. A clinical evaluation by a Dermatologist before starting any medicine is advised. I hope this is helpful to you. Regards. Thanks.
