27 yo male 6ft UK white

Ramiprill

Lanzoprazole

Sertaline

I am a very hairy guy all over

For pass 2 weeks Ive been itchy all over my body inclueding my face and head.

but for past 2 days its changed now when in bed or wearing clothes it feels like sharp little hairs are being poked in my skin all over when fabric touches my body.

No rash, Changed nothing in my life e,g washing powder ect.

When i move my arm against my stomache it feels like 1000s of pins being stabbed.

Tried anti allergy tablets and coverd my self in anti ichy cream and nothing has helped

I am VERY concered its more to do with inside of my body eg liver kidney or even cancer.

Any ideas?

I am no expert- could it be neurological ?

I agree with Ratton although also no expert, trouble is in UK we don't do holistic treatment and any skin issue is treated as if it's an external problem.

Ask your doctor to check you for scabies. If it's not that, have you started any new meds lately? I was fighting miserable itching for years only to discover I was allergic to all Statin drugs. Got off them and the itching and sores all went away.

Hi the description of your condition is exactly like mine it drives me crazy.i have been like this for six months since i started drugs for my so called heart attack. i am taking Tigrelor, losartan, Biposporol, Aspirin, 80mg Astovar statin and Lanzoprazole. I have found that to enable for me to sleep i apply menthol products to some of the more sensitive parts of the body this makes me relax and take my mind off the niggly pin prick that i want to scratch.I use a powder used in the far east for prickly heat it's very soothing amazon.co.uk/Prickly-Heat-P... hope you get a solution as i hope to very soon.
