Skin Allergy - Itching

2021-06-26 08:59:24
I've stayed in hostel for 1 and a half month and started experiencing itching after 2 weeks of my stay. I've been experiencing itching entirely on my body. I've been prescribed monthly courses of tablets since April. But there is no improvement. I'm no more comfortable in taking tablet courses for months. Could you please prescribe the medicines that I won't have to use for months and also help me improve fast?
