Hives at night: Alpha-gal syndrome?

I have been itching at night, too, but with no visible rashand no one can figure out why. I do have psoriasis, however, although this itching is in addition to my psoriasis which is mostly on my scalp.

Is there a Connect thread on psoriasis?

Here is a link to an article from Mayo Clinic on psoriasis that you may find helpful:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/psoriasis/symptoms-causes/syc-20355840

If you go to the Skin Health group header. it will give you a choice to do a search, and you can put in "psoriasis" [without the quote marks], click on the magnifying glass, and see where people have used that word in replies within the group. This may lead you to some interesting conversations you might otherwise overlook.

Sometimes itching can be caused by dry skin rubbing against your bedcovers, or the bedcovers themselves [detergent from washing still left in them, or the material makeup not friendly with your skin]. Sometimes room temperature, or the warmth of bedcovers creates irritation.

Hi there @rashida, it is nice to see you back on Connect, but not with
"the itch". You will be able to find more information and the introduction of a new product called Dermeleve. It is not a cure-all but can take away the annoying itch and give you a break. If you would like to read about it online just go to http://www.dermeleve.com. My dermatologist brought it back for me to try. She found it at a dermatology conference. It works quickly.....within 15 minutes and gives you relief for about 6 hours.

It is an OTC product that you can purchase right online. For me, I truly don't leave home without it. I also take it to my MFR, "Myofascial Release Therapy" so that the therapists can use it without worrying about some kind of allergen giving me a bad time.

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
