Thought my itchy burning skin feelings were brought on by the central heating comming on each year but turns out it is winter hay fever brought on by tree moulds! Had it for years and finally went to docs a few years back as eyes, tongue, ears and throat itching started as well and I was going insane. Doc sussed it straight away and anti histamines do the trick. Hope this helps t
i have almost exactly the same symptoms, I have been dx with Lupus, but I am not sure if thats what it is as I am on meds for that. I usually take vitamin d supplements, and during the summer I was fine, it stopped. Now as fall starts, the itching has. I am increasing my d3 supplement today and praying it is helpful
I do ....and it comes up in blisters
i read the same thing that the vitamin b-12 is the answer. for most, i have the sensation of tiny pins poking me and i feel so warm my face is hot and neck as we speak and my hands stays hot as well... its a bad thing, i know i have neurothomy but i am not a diabetic as i know. i have fibromyalgia and that makes many things happen, but i went for about 4 weeks broke out on feet legs and up a little past my knees and it looked like i had the measles some spots was bigger, i went to dr. tried creme, almost used the whole tube over a weekend plus benadryl man i tell you, after you get so much of an antihistamine you can't sleep, it hyped me up and i was wide awake and it was miserable, i also have breaking out on arms and i just am miserable but i do have trouble with my vitamin b-12 and D being low and had to take shots, so its hard, i still don't know what my breaking out is but i do know that when i go outside after or during grass being mowed i have trouble with the breaking out some, just not as bad as the other time.. so i try to stay away from it.. so good luck i would love to stop feeling so hot, i also have rosasha and that makes me feel even hotter... and itchy, good luck .... may God bless you and i pray to see the issues to go away ....

I have been having similar symptoms since January 2015; but my prickly, itchy skin has been around my neck! I usually notice it first thing in a morning and it feels like prickles from the inside coming out; it itches and I try really hard not to scratch because if I do it comes up like a burn right around my neck, it looks like a collar and becomes very sore and affects the skin behind my ears and my eyelids which become very red and swollen. My skin becomes very scaley and dry and even more itchy.
I have tried creams, tablets etc but t.hey don't seem to help at all.
I have stopped using anything other than water for washing my face but I still can't seem to eradicate the problem.
I do use an aloe jel on my skin when the prickly skin starts and this does keep it under control to a degree but I really do have to stay on top of it or it gets out of control!
I have no idea what's causing it; I wonder whether it's my bedding as it always seems to be worse in a morning! I've changed my pillows to some which are anti allergy but to no avail!
I would be interested if anyone else experiences this problem with their neck too, as it appears that most people have it on other areas of their body.
