I itch a lot and have dry skin, when I got out the bath the otherday (it was warm by the way) I got out dryed myself with the towel and because I was itching int he bath, I had red drawings on my body like whatever I scatched it as but It faded after like 1 minute. My skin is quite white and whatever I use it absorbs, like i put on skin lotion and nurishment lotion to make the skin smooth, after a minute it was dry again. It does not make sense, I am 17 and scared, I had to shave my pubic hair as it was so dawn itchy, It still is but my back and arms are the worse, I gave myself scabs as I scrached my back so much. I think it may be scabies, but I dont know, some scraches stay for a few days but yeah I really dont know please help. I cant stop itching. I was on my trampoline last couple of weeks and not jumping but just laying there and aint used it for months it could of been where i was biten, I dont know if it is scabbies but what else could it be, Help Please

    Why don't you talk to a pharmacist, if they think it is scabies you can get some permethrin cream. Have you got a rash, can you see any scabies tunnels where they have been crawling? A pharmacist can probably make a suggestion if it is not scabies and will recommend you see a doctor if they are not sure. A pharmacist is free, you don't have to make an appointment and you can see them immediately by just walking into the chemist.

    defo see a chemist they are very knowlegable mores so than doctors .

    if its scabbies its normaly caused by getting  dirt in a cut just a little of it under anail can be enough ,dont leave it 

    the other i can think of is you could have been bitten by red spiders there very tiny with a nasty bite . .see a chemist tomorrow ,at least your know if it is or not .one of the above .

      go and ask  a chemist  they are highly experinced

      and would proberly be  a better option than a doctor 

      for a diognoses .dont wait till the 27 thats to far . some skin conditions 

      are contagious and can be spread to others

      It could be related to your liver,

      I would suggest seeing your DR and

      Ask for blood work to rule everything

      out! Let me add it will probably be

      Something small but better be safe!

      I hope all is well 😊

      like someone else has mentioned it could be linked to your liver 

      try making up a jug of bottled water with sliced and skinned cumcumber in it about half a cumcumber 

      in it and drink as much as you can ,every day this is a very good liver detox 

      but still see a gp soon
