ve read other peoples reviews and I see this symptom is also a symptom for Crawley skin, sharp pain, itchy skin, and when night time comes. It gets worst. But this is what I'm taking for it. Thank you for letting me share this comment. :-) :-) :-) :-) .

Also since then I have had itchy skin all over (not on the bumps on my arms. Mostly around the face.) I was thinking maybe I have dry skin? I have been using lotion a lot more lately, and have washed all my clothes and bed sheets. My mom checked my head for lice (maybe I picked something up at the renaissance fair?) and says that I don't have any (She is a nurse so I trust her, so I think I have dandruff). Anybody have any idea what this could be? I'm kinda stressing out over it.

The main suspect in that darkened one is diabetes. After that, it might be that something else is growing inside and the skin effect is a sign of what's on the inside.

Other conditions cause itchy skin as well. Skin conditions like dermatitis, scabies and hives, internal diseases like liver and kidney disorders, diabetes, iron deficiency anemia, irritation and allergic reactions to chemicals, wool, soaps, cosmetics and certain foods can cause itchy skin. You can apply an anti-itch cream or lotion to the affected area. Oral antihistamine, such as Benadryl can also be used. You should take a comfortably cool bath and wear smooth-textured cotton clothing.

What does an itchy, hot scrotum have to do with diabetes? And does a burning scrotum fall into that as well? Thank you. J.

I've got an itch under my skin. Usually on the soles and bridge of my feet, on the palms of my left hand, some of my fingers, between my breasts, on my left nipple only and one spot on my head but its always on the same places. It feels as though it gets inflamed or worse when I scratch but the itch doesn't go away. Skin appears normal no rash whatsoever. Been like this for 3 days now. What could it be?

Vitamin A deficiency and diabetes too can cause dry skin. Hence these should be ruled out. You would need to consult a skin specialist then. Take care!

One of the conditions with diabetes is itchy skin and fungal problems as well as having cuts that are difficult to heal. Through breaks in the skin you can get a bacterial infection.

Does it happen when you sleep elsewhere? Have you changed laundry soaps? Are you pregnant and taking an anti- morning sickness medication?

Itchy shoulder blades can be caused by dry skin, eczema, an allergy to detergent or even a condition of Diabetes Insipidus. I use Gold Bond anti itch lotion as I find it works better than any others I've tried. I have itchy shoulder blades also - but mine are from a form of eczema. Hope this information was helpful.

Insulin injection not only can cause an itchy small, hard red area at the injection site but a generalized allergy to insulin causes rashes and itchy skin over other parts of the body. Usually, this disappears by itself. If the itching continues, then other insulins that you are not allergic to can be tried. I feel that if you are having itcy parts of the skin after insulin use,then it is necessary to discuss it with your endocrinologist. Hope it helps.Take care and regards.

As many as one third of people with diabetes will have a skin disorder caused or affected by diabetes at some time in their lives.

Yeast-like fungus can create itchy rashes of moist, red areas surrounded by tiny blisters and scales. These infections often occur in warm, moist folds of the skin.

Acanthosis nigricans presents as symmetrical, hyperpigmented, velvety plaques mostly in the folds of skin. It is not itchy and is characterized by hyperpigmentation. My sincere advice is to consult a dermatologist. The other possibility is of Addison’s disease which needs to be ruled out. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
