Suggest Treatment For Severe Itching On The Elbows And Knees

Hi. I am researching what condition I have. I have extreme itching in the bend of my elbows, behind my knees, between and under my breasts, and on my neck. It drives me crazy during the night. I don t want to damage my skin, but need immediate relief. Trying to find out what it is and how to treat it.
