cant..stop..itching...!
when the winter comes and the air gets dry, i cant stop itching. it only happens when i get warm. when i get warm, but befor i start sweating, i have this itchyness that drives me crazy. once i start sweating it goes away, but it is horrible. has anyone experienced this & what do i do??? i use lotion on my entire body, take quick lukewarm showers, nothing seems to work. i also have a blotchy red rash. itchyness is usually all over my torso. any idea whats going on?!?!?!? anything advice is appreciated.

I would set up an appointment with a dermatologist. May be a deeper issue. Did this just start this winter or is it a recurring problem? Have you tried anti itch creams?

I misspelled it, its Cetaphil with an "a".

You could probably go pick some up at your local CVS, Walgreens, Wal-mart, etc.
