Got a terrible itch on my hip but its not a itch, it wont be scratched, its deep down if that makes sense

I get this quite a lot, on various bits of my body, so annoying

It should be outlawed.

For some reason it actually makes me gag!

No-one ever knows what I am talking about when I mention my itches that can't be scratched. Glad to have some company here!

Soles of the feet or palms of hands for me. I use a hair brush for my feet and bite my palms 😂

A bone deep itch. I get that a lot with topical steroid withdrawal. It’s very annoying…. Very itchy!

The itch is somewhere else and you have to find it. Like you scratch your side and the leg itch that isn’t an itch feels scratched.

Urgh, there should be a support group for us lot.

Yes it's like the itch is happening in a different dimension/parallel universe.
