Hi.
I would first recommend a visit to your ENT to check if at all you have an infection that could be causing the itching. Next we will have to conduct an elaborate blood profile including your blood coagulation profile, lipid profile, electromyography and possibly even imaging scans to find the cause for the numbing sensation you have been experiencing on and off.
Best wishes.
