[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concerns. If the itching is more at night, then it seems you may have scabies, it is due to itch mite, in such case I would advise you to use separate clothes and towels, wash all your clothes, weddings and towels separately and Chat Doctor.  I would suggest you to remain away from people having same symptoms as it is communicable, so don't share your bedding, towel or clothes. You can give a single application of permethrin once on whole body. And take some antihistamines like levocitrizine 5 mg at nights for a week, it would be helpful if I could see the lesions, because it can be urticaria too which is allergic disease and is due to triggering allergens, in that case also levocitrizine can help you. Thank you
