hi,
causes of itching can be many..check if you have changed your bathing soap,deospray,perfumes,powder,etc..,change the blankets, bedsheets
itching can be caused by worms inside the gut (which will release allergans),sometimes jaundice ,some allergans like dust,mite,pollen etc,,,blood changes like eosinophilia,,,take anti histaminics,,consult a dermatolgist
get well soon
