You should probably mention that to your doc, I'm pretty sure it's a sign of something bad, chole something maybe?

I never had itching, but my neighbor told me it was probably due to my regimen: Hot bath with baby oil and immediately popped on creamy baby oil when I got out of bath (do not dry off). If you have REALLY dry skin, I'd suggest Vaseline jelly after the creamy baby oil to lock in the moisture.

If your skin isn't dry, I'd suggest seeing a doctor for a GFR (kidney/liver function test), especially if you have yellowing in your eyes/skin or your urine is different (bubbly/foamy)

I take probably 2 hot baths a day with baby oil and sometimes epson salts. Ive tried every lotions, ice, itching cream, everything, It gets so bad at night. No I havent seen a doctor about it, i mentioned it a few weeks ago and he didnt seem concerned but now its unbearable. Im staying up for 2 more hours until my doc office opens to call.

Ouch! Sounds painful. Poison ivy? Rash? Are you allergic? My aunt says if that ever happens it helps to take a bath in salt warm water.

Pups is bumps.

I had itching too. I scratched my stretch marks so bad they bled and scarred Omg! It didn't go away until a week pp either. I put milk in my baths and when I got out I used a mixture of coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, argan oil and jojoba oil I got from the health store I melted, mixed then.froze it. I still love it and its natural. Tea tree oil helped the stretch mark itch.

I swear that drove me nuts! I cried a lot bc I itched so bad

Sounds like you have Cholestasis. You should definitely talk to your Dr. about it. I think an ice compress would help with your itching, but not completely take the urge to itch away. If you tell your Dr., they might be able to prescribe something for you.

Itching of your feet and palms is related to salt deposits. According to my doc I was told to let them know ASAP if I had itching like that bc they will have to give you some medications.
