Itching?
 

:eek: I woke up this morning with itching going down my entire right side—the arm that was bothering me more—from face to foot. What the...? Does anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped (and itchy).

i get this all the time (not to my feet tho), i think its just nerve irritation

check your vitamins/mineral levels

Thanks for the reply. :) Is there anything you've found that helps to relieve it?

no actually, im afraid to move when it happens its bizarre :(

it's nothing

Is it a skin itch or some sort of internal muscle/fascia itch?

Ack, I don't think I know the difference. :icon_redface:

When my forearms were very tight, sometimes it felt like inside the muscles there was a current or buzzing and tension - I guess it wasn't itchy but I felt like I needed to rub and push deeply on my arm muscles to try to relieve that odd feeling.
But the skin itself feels normal and I don't feel the need to scratch it at all.


I've been lazy about stretching and such over the summer- which I feel better muscle wise then anyway, now that chilly & damp weather has arrived I am feeling the need to get back to it.

I now know when my forearms get tight it is also the neck/shoulders being involved too..everything in the chain starts to pull & I need to get it all relaxed again.

I definitely felt the need to scratch...hm. :(

it feels just like your skin, but i'm guessing it's not for me..it's not

when my neck is extra crunchy the back of my head itches

back of my arms itch

its disgusting.


if youre hypermobile i think youre more prone to this (and nerve irritation in general)

jo mar's got a good point, nerves are like a big chain, either its tense and compressed somewhere or stretched or both

I do experience itching inside my body, upper and lower on occassions.... I really do think that it is when I am more stressed that it happens, its like the body is overloaded with toxins and tension etc. Try everything possible to relax not only your body but your mind also, anything to help distract you from the sensations, hot baths, meditation, music a movie?.:hug:

i feel you on the toxins

when i irritated my bp my ribs caught on fire, it felt like someone was injecting toxins into my muscles all around my rib cage. lactic acid? i had 5 billion trigger points after that and they hurt moreso than your avg trigger points like needles
