Detailed Answer:
Hi, Ronolfes,
Thanks for posting query to HCM.
Read your problem.
It seems that having this problem suddenly indicates that there might be having some external or internal problem giving rise this severe itching on your hands.
External causes might be handling some stuff or using some thing producing allergic reaction and itching like soap, using some detergent, chemical etc.
Might having some food giving allergy like cereals, some vegetables, curd etc.
Some internal causes like worm infestation, allergic bite, diabetes.
What now urgently needed is take some antihistamine tablet like Benadryl or Levo-cetrizine, one tablet stat and if require take after 6-8 hours.
Apply ice pack on hands.
If there is problem in breathing or chocking sensation in throat, go to ER and get examined.
I hope, I answered your query.
If you have further query or clarification, please write back.
Wishing you urgent relief from your symptom.
