Itchy Skin
I have been experiencing itchiness on my back, chest, torso, and sometimes head whenever my body temperature rises and I begin to sweat. This includes warm weather, anxiety, exercise, etc. I find relief when I use a menthol moisturizer AFTER the itchiness begins, but it doesn't prevent it. Cooling down my body also helps relieve the itchiness. I don't experience dry skin or hives or rashes of any kind.

Urticaria can happen even without overt hives. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment advice. It can also be atopic eczema.
