Hi,

As per your complain it seems that itching and swelling on the body when getting up in the morning can be due to a number of causes and in case if it is not due to bug bites, then it can be due to allergy to any food or medication that you might be compatible with..It can be due to allergy to the detergents or soaps that you are using.

I would suggest you to consult an Allergist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigation like allergic test can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly. As of now you can take anti-allergics like Allegra or Levocetrizine. Apply Calamine lotion to soothe the skin.

Hope this information helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks and regards,
Dr. Honey Nandwani Arora
