How Can Severe Itching On The Skin Be Treated?

Dear Dr. Hi! i have been suffering from skin problems since the last six to seven years. During this period, I have consulted many doctors practicing Allopathy, Ayurveda and Homeopathy but in vain. Fed up of the treatments, I stopped consulting as there was no difference whatsoever to my problem. Let me describe my skin problem... My face has gotten darker than the rest of my body and there is severe itching especially after going outside in the sun. I have ezcema like rashes on the backside of both my hands starting from the finger tip till where the wrist starts. Here also there is severe itching. The skin on the ankle area has also gotten darker. All this is symmetrical and as you can see the areas affected are the ones exposed to the sun. Because of the above problem, I have lost my confidence totally and try to remain indoors avoiding to meet anyone. I had to leave my job too because of this. Everybody at home is worried because of this. Needless to mention, I would be eternally grateful and be highly obliged, if anyone could suggest some medication/solution so that I could get some relief and start leading a normal life. I am married, age forty five years and have two children. Nobody in my family has any kind of skin problem. please help. thank you.
