You may have "winter itch", a problem common in some people during cold weather. Your skin becomes dry and itchy OR, based on what you've said about your skin being scabby, it could be other skin conditions. See a dermatologist for the best advice and help.

do you have feint red lines in the webs of your fingers , are you scratching more in the more moist parts of your body. I am not saying you are dirty but have you been in contact with anyone who may have scabies(its got noting to do with hygiene please don't be offended) if yes go to the chemist and get some lyclear. If no go to the doctor you may need allergy tests and use some lanocaine or eurax cream which has a local anaesthetic to numb the area thus give you some relief. moisturise well and don't have the central heating on too high , this will dry out your skin rapidly and encourage further irritation for you. good luck
merry Christmas all.

Talk to your local pharmacist - they will probably recommend EUMOVATE or BETNOVATE cream which can be purchased without prescription for about £4 per tube.

If the problem is still there after the first tube, make an appointment with the doctor. (You could do the doctor first, but it is usually quicker and more efficient to talk to the pharmacist.)

It is not usually recommended to use these products for more than 3 weeks as they thin the skin and can cause more problems.

There are many possible causes, including the usual allergies (fabrics, foods, cosmetics, biological washing power), urticaria (ask Google), and even the depo provera injection.

Have you got central heating?? i had really bad excema and i have to make sure that i put a bowl of water on or under the rads as it dries the air out which in turn dries you out!! Also,sometimes cosmetic comps change there ingreadients without saying anything so you go on using it without knowing its a different product!!! If its really sore i recommend Dr Haushka rose day cream...exspensive but well worth it as i no longer have excema. Good luck x

This sounds like the onset of eczema to me, though I'm not a doctor. Is it on the inside of your elbows and the back of your legs? Are there little red spots?

If it is, eczema you're better off going to the doctor for cream than over the counter. The cream you get on prescription is more effective. Simple E45 will not do for eczema.

Change of season. The cold weather makes my skin itch too. Make sure you drink plenty to keep your skin hydrated and use a mild moisturiser. Try cocoa butter, or if it doesn't improve eumovate or betnovate from the chemist or your G.P. Hope it gets better, Merry Christmas.xx

Itching can be caused by insect bites like mosquito bites, heat rashes or allergic reactions.Aloe vera gel , apple cider vinegar or vitamin E oil can be effectively used on the affected skin.

shower and wash with aqueous cream. get it from boots or somewhere. a big tub is only about 3.99. its really softening and gentle. i've been like this on two occasions. the first time i'd overdone it on a sunbed so i took antihistamines as well, and the second time i was developing psoriasis (i had a small rash for a week and didnt suspect anythin).
