Constant itching, discomfort sensation - Skin Problems Message Board

This started yesterday. I have a weird feeling all over my body. It's an itching, tingling sensation. The best way to describe it is as "ants running on your skin or biting you." It doesen't hurt and it doesen't itch so much that I need to stratch it. Just weird tingling. All I need to do to get rid of the sensation is to brush my skin or even touch it. The thing is, once the sensation stops it starts somewhere else on my body and once again I got to brush or touch my skin. And the sensation starts up somewhere on my body around every 10 seconds.

Does anyone have any clue what on earth this is?

I would not know what it is, but I have been experiencing something similar. I have been experiencing itchy skin for the past week or more. It also feels tingly as well. I usually have to scratch mine for a while to make the sensation go away, and all that is left from the itching is pink skin, which goes away very soon after.

I may see the doctor within a week (maybe..) if this doesn't go away because I cannot see an obvious cause for it. No change in diet really nor am I using different soaps (but I have been adding vinegar to my laundry load). I have no allergies.
