Causes for Itching :

Itching happens when the body's immune cells stop recognising the body's own skin , and starts attacking the skin cells. When the skin cells get damaged , Itching is the result. 

Prolonged Itching may lead to other skin conditions , such as Urticaria, or Eczema. Urticaria is a condition where the skin becomes warm to the touch, burning and itching at the same time, and having long red/pink coloured lines on the skin. Sometimes , Urticaria may appear on the face, causing swelling of face , eyes or lips.This condition may last from 30 minutes to many hours, after which it subsides on its own. This problem will repeat anytime without any specific cause . Avoidance of certain foods, drink, change in lifestyle has no impact on this complaint. There is no correlation between the onset of this disorder with either food, drink or lifestyle.
