Some causes of itchy skin include:

* Eczema
* Contact dermatitis
* Poison oak
* Poison ivy
* Insect bite
* Insect sting
* Parasites
* Scabies
* Lice
* Tick bite
* Shingles
* Dandruff - causing itchy scalp

Vaseline is an excellent treatment for itchy skin. Try apply it to the itchy area several times a day, and after bathing.

If the itchy skin is red, warm and swollen, it can ooze fluid. You may need antibiotics to get rid of this kind of infection.

A moisturizer might be all you need to relieve itching. If a moisturizer does not help enough, you could try using 1 percent hydrocortisone steroid skin cream for a week. If this is not helpful, your doctor may prescribe stronger steroids or antihistamine pills.
