HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible an allergic reaction.This is one of the more common causes of an itchy rash.

Allergic reactions can occur due to any chemical agent, environmental allergen or food.
Allergy tests , can determine if an allergy is present and allow you to reduce your exposure to it.

Other causes of itchy rash would be infection, side effect of medication, liver disease, thyroid disease, kidney disease.
If it is not likely an allergy then you can be screened for one of these conditions.

I hope this helps
