What Is The Reason For Itching All Over The Body And Appearance Of Bumps After Scratching?
I have itching all over my body. Early in the mornings and late at night is worse than anyother time of day. I have small bumps that aapear where I scratch. No anti itch helps. It only slows it down. I take an antihistamine but that doesn't help either. Now what?

Hi. Thanks for posting your query on HCM
Seems that it could be because of Scabies (itch mite). Scabies cause itching all over the body specially on abdomen, inner thighs, arms. It itches more at the night. Sometimes it affects other members in the family too.
I would suggest that you consult a nearby dermatologist for a visual confirmation of diagnosis.
Take care
regards
