I am male, 26 years of age. Recently I have been facing the problem of itching on my body (specially on both hands and belly) after I take bath. This itch remains for maximum 10 minutes after bathing. This itch is without any rashes or visible marks. It just feels like a mild prick on hands and stomach. After a little rub it settles down and then the same feeling happens at multiple other places in the body. Overall it causes lot of discomfort after taking bath. First of all I thought I thought there is something wrong with the water, I changed the water but still problem remained. Then I thought may be I should change my soap, so I tried other soaps and body wash but the problem remained. Then I thought may be the body gets dry after bath, so I should apply moisturiser after bath. The problem remained even after that. This problem remained in the past also but not very significant, so ignored. So please tell me, how to get rid of this completely and what this condition is called? Thanks.
