View Full Version : Everything Itches!

Ok, for the past few years I've had serious case of itchiness. Now I'm ready to get to the bottom of it. My upper back and chest itch CONSTANTLY, ok so not constantly but pretty close. I can't have my shirt off because then it itches more. I can't lay on my stomach and prop myself up with my arms because my chest will itch like crazy! Its gotten to the point that I can't even find a position to sleep in sometimes.

I thought at first it was because I shave my chest, but that can't be it because I don't shave my back. Then I thought it was my acne solutions, but thats not it cuz I've stopped using them except for on my face (which does't itch at all). I've changed shampoo a couple times and my mom never buys the same body soap twice so I don't think it's either of those.

Does anyone know what could be causing this? Or what might make things better?

Laundry detergent maybe? Dry skin?

Or in the different body soaps there are certain ingredients irritating you.

I thought about the detergant but we don't have the same kind all the time, and if it is dry skin it's VERY widespread, how can I get rid of it?

You must be lacking something in your system for your skin to feel itchy like this, and even being dry. (If that is it.)
You need to take some essential oils.
What ones? I don't know. Ask someone at your nearest health food store.
