Itching is first and foremost a physical disorder, but it is also a symptom.
It can be the alarm bell that warns of an organic disease, such as:
- a skin cancer;
- A blood cancer( Hodgkin‘s lymphoma );
- A tumor of the kidney(renal failure);
- A cancer of the liver(Hepatitis C).
In skin cancers, it sometimes happens that itching seems to arise from a single spot on the skin , and that this is the only more or less intense and recurrent sign of the disease.
To find relief from this disorder, one must be certain of the diagnosis and undergo appropriate therapeutic treatment under the supervision of the specialist.
