Itchy head, back and beard

2023-04-05 02:27:19
My boyfriend keeps scratching his head uncontrollably whereas I have checked and there is no lice and moderate dandruff. However this itching has been effecting his day to day life as he keeps stretching his head and beard until it bleeds and his hand hurts and he still cannot stop. The same scenario is with his back as it's full or spots and he keeps itching it as well.
