I've been having these relentless itches all over my body, day and night, and it's driving me crazy. There are these bubbles and rashes popping up everywhere, even on my head, and I'm really worried. Can you tell me what might be going on and how I can make this itching stop?

Could be indicative of an allergic reaction or dermatitis. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily to help relieve itching and rash symptoms. Additionally, applying a soothing lotion containing calamine or hydrocortisone to the affected areas can also provide relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
