Brief Answer:
An antihistamine may help.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you might be having an allergic reaction.
I would like to suggest that you can take an antihistamine like Cetrizine 10 mg once a day for relief from itching.

You should look out for the cause of your itching like any new products you have used like-new soap/shampoo/perfume,etc. You should also look out for any new food you have consumed.

Application of soothing lotion or moisturizing lotion can relieve your symptoms.

I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
