Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The itchy patch on the palate could be because of the lichen planus or candidiasis.
The other possible cause could be because of the allergic rhinitis.
If it is lichen planus, then topical steroid like triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% 4-5times daily after food.
If it is candidiasis, then you can apply topical antifungal agents like candid mouth piant 3-4 times daiy for a week.
If it is allergic rhinitis, then consult a ENT surgeon and get it treated
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
