I've been researching the cause of my itchy skin, but I can't quite find an answer. I don't have hives, but my skin just started feeling dry and gradually became itchy.
At first, I just endured it and thought it would be okay if I applied moisturizing cream, so I kept applying it, but after a while, it was the same.
When I looked into the causes of itchy skin, there were many reasons such as diabetes, stress, excessive drinking, and allergies, but none of them seemed to apply to me. It seems to mostly occur when I'm tired or my immunity is low.
They say that using too much steroid ointment is bad because it makes your skin thinner, but if I don't apply the ointment, it doesn't go away and instead gets bigger and spreads.
It's too itchy to just leave it alone, and I don't know how to solve it. The dermatologist said that it's a common skin allergy of unknown cause and just prescribes medicine.
If you know the cause of itchy skin or know a way to help with itching, please let me know.
