Itching can be an especially annoying symptom of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Sometimes, your skin might itch for no obvious reason, and when your skin that is dry or irritated you'll likely feel a stronger itch than someone else would.
Itching is not only bothersome, but it can be an added sleep dysruption. Also, vigorous scratching can trigger a pain response in people with FMS.
Anti-itch creams, like Benadryl Itch Relief, can stop itches caused by bug bites, allergies, or other skin irritants.
For the itch caused by dry skin, try a fragrance-free lotion. For an unexplained itch, you may find relief from a cold compress or gentle rubbing.
