cronic itching
by awsofny, Mar 31, 2006 12:00AM
Our doctors have not been able to diagnosis my son, age 17, who has had chronic itching over the past 2 years. he has seen his regular pediatrician, dermatologist, and allergist but none have been able to help him. he has a recurring severe itching, usually starting on his head and then anywhere you touch his skin, it raises like a welt and starts to itch. he is living on claritin, which is the only thing that subsides the itching. we have been thru all of the "check what he is allergic to" stuff. he seems to go into an itching state when he gets upset also. we have tried almost everything and I feel that our doctors have exhausted their knowledge. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, all help is appreciated.
