I'm sorry to hear that your husband and now you have used Methamphetamine. Itching is a common effect of Methamphetamine use, and can sometimes cause Methamphetamine users to damage their skin from scratching. The happens because of Methamphetamine effects on the nerves in your body, which include the nerves to your skin.
As you probably know, Methamphetamines are very addictive and damaging to your health. Apart from any symptoms, you might be having, the very best thing you can do is stop using Methamphetamine yourself, and help your husband to stop as well. This can be very difficult, and if you need help there are resources you can use.
I hope this experience motivates you to never do Methamphetamine again, and that you can help your husband as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Aaron Branch,
General & Family Physician
