Occasional Itching

The occasional itch isn't a big deal, but constant, unrelenting itching can become quite a nuisance and even a serious health concern. What Causes the Itch? How Liver Disease and Itching Go Hand in Hand. You'll rarely notice itching in any alcohol-related liver disease or fatty liver diseases. Itching is an unpleasant sensation that seems to require scratching for relief. Many women occasionally have short episodes of vaginal itching that resolve without treatment. Itching is considered a problem only when it persists, is severe, recurs, or is accompanied by a discharge.

For example, you may have one, many, or all of these feelings and sensations once in a while and not that often, feel them off and on, or feel them all the time.

These itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and other odd or unusual feelings or sensations may precede, accompany, or follow an escalation of other anxiety sensations and symptoms, or occur by themselves.

These itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and other odd or unusual feelings and sensations can precede, accompany, or follow an episode of nervousness, anxiety, fear, and elevated stress, or occur ‘out of the blue' and for no apparent reason.

These itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and other odd or unusual feelings and sensations can range in intensity from slight, to moderate, to severe. They can also come in waves, where they are strong one moment and ease off the next.

What causes the itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and any other odd or unusual feelings and sensations under the skin and/or inside or deep inside the body anxiety symptoms?

These types of anxiety symptoms can be caused by a number of factors including:

• Remaining in the same position (seated or standing) for a long period of time.
• Injury or pressure on a nerve (for example, a back injury can cause these feelings and sensations in the legs or feet, and a neck injury can cause them in the arms and hands).
• Pressure on the spinal nerves (for example, due to a herniated disk).
• Lack of blood supply to an area (for example, restricted blood flow–we often refer to it as 'falling asleep,' or for medical reason such as, plaque buildup from atherosclerosis–this can cause these feelings and sensations).
• Side effects from certain medications.
• A lack of vitamin B12 or other vitamins.
• Toxic action on the nerves, such as from alcohol, tobacco, or lead.
• Abnormal levels of calcium, potassium, or sodium in the body.

Itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and any other odd or unusual feelings and sensations anywhere under the skin and/or inside or deep inside the body can also be caused by other medical conditions.

When these under the skin and/or inside or deep inside the body sensations and symptom are caused by anxiety, there can be many factors that cause them. Here are seven common factors:

1. Being anxious has activated an active stress response

Being stressed and anxious (worried, apprehensive, fretful, fearful) causes the body to produce the stress response. The stress response secretes stress hormones into the bloodstream where they travel to targeted spots to bring about specific physiological, psychological, and emotional changes that enhance the body's ability to deal with a threat—to either fight with or flee from it—which is the reason the stress response is often referred to as the fight or flight response.

Because the stress response can cause a wide range of physiological changes, some of these changes can cause itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and any other odd or unusual feelings and sensations in various parts of the body when a stress response has been activated.

2. Stress-response hyperstimulation

When stress responses occur infrequently, the body can recover relatively quickly from the physiological, psychological, and emotional changes the stress response brings about. But when stress responses occur too frequently and/or dramatically the body has a more difficult time recovering, which can result in the body remaining in a semi hyperstimulated state, since stress hormones are stimulants.

A body that becomes hyperstimulated can behave oddly and erratically, which can cause a wide range of unusual sensations and symptoms, including feeling an itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and any other odd or unusual feelings and sensations under the skin and/or anywhere inside or deep inside the body.

3. Hyper- or hypoventilation

Hyper- or hypoventilation is another cause of feeling a tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, and/or prickly feelings and sensations. When we breathe too shallowly and don't take in enough oxygen (hypoventilation), this causes the CO2 levels in the blood to drop, which can cause a tingling, tingly, pins and needles sensation anywhere on or in the body. Some people describe this feeling as an effervescence, prickly, or crawly sensation.

If, on the other hand, you are breathing too aggressively and take in too much oxygen, this can also change the CO2 levels in the blood causing hyperventilation, which can also cause a tingling, tingly, pins and needles sensation anywhere on or in the body.

Even though these tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles feelings and sensations can seem odd and even unsettling, they are harmless and needn't be a cause for concern. They will subside when you reverse the above hyper or hypoventilation causes.

4. Vitamin B deficiency

Stress taxes the body's resources harder than normal, which can affect the body's nutrients, including vitamins. Stress commonly causes a reduction in the body's vitamin B. Vitamin B deficiency can also cause these types of feelings and sensations.

5. Reaction to medication

How to get rid of the itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, prickly, and any other odd or unusual feelings and sensations under the skin and/or anywhere inside or deep inside the body anxiety symptoms?

When the itchy, itching, tingly, tingling, crawly, crawling, pins and needles, and prickly feelings and sensations are caused by apprehensive behavior and the accompanying stress response changes, calming yourself down will bring an end to the stress response and its changes. As your body recovers from the active stress response, these anxiety-related symptoms should subside.

Keep in mind that it can take up to 20 minutes or more for the body to recover from a major stress response. But this is normal and shouldn't be a cause for concern.

When these types of anxiety symptoms are caused by persistent stress, such as from stress-response hyperstimulation, it may take a lot more time for the body to calm down and recover, and to the point where these types of anxiety symptoms subside.

Nevertheless, when the body has fully recovered from the stress of being anxious, these types of anxiety symptoms will completely disappear. Therefore, these symptoms needn't be a cause for concern.

You can speed up the recovery process by reducing your stress, practicing relaxed breathing, increasing your rest and relaxation, and not worrying about these feelings. Sure, they can be bothersome, but again, when your body has recovered from the stress response and/or sustained stress, these sensations will completely disappear.

If you are having difficulty containing your worry, you may want to connect with one of our anxiety disorder therapists, coaches, or counselors. Working with an experienced anxiety disorder therapist, coach, or counselor is the most effective way to overcome what seems like unmanageable worry.

For a more detailed explanation about anxiety symptoms, why anxiety symptoms can persist long after the stress response has ended, common barriers to recovery and symptom elimination, and more recovery strategies and tips, we have many chapters that address this information in the Recovery Support area of our website.

The combination of good self-help information and working with an experienced anxiety disorder therapist is the most effective way to address anxiety disorder and its many symptoms. Until the core causes of anxiety are addressed - the underlying factors that motivate apprehensive behavior - a struggle with anxiety disorder can return again and again. Identifying and successfully addressing anxiety's underlying factors is the best way to overcome problematic anxiety.
