Persistent Itching: Possible Causes & Relief - Health Advice

Question
I have this terrible itching on my hands. I rub neosporin, benedryl and hydrocortisone on them constantly. My ears were also itching the same way and on my outer thighs as well, I have scratched them so hard I have bruises and I can not figure out what it is. Do you have any idea what I am dealing with? I haven't used anything new soaps, creams or otherwise.
Thank you,
Bev

Answer
sounds like "allergic skin"  don't know if you have other allergies (asthma, runny nose, irritable bowel) we think about creams/soaps, etc but usually that goes nowhere... it can be something you eat or some medication you have developed an allergy to.... try some avalert daily; good luck with it
