I've been dealing with a viral fever for the last five days, and while I'm feeling better now, I'm experiencing this really bothersome itching all over my body. Is this normal after a viral fever, or should I be concerned about something else? What can I do to relieve the itching?

I'm dealing with a skin disease that just came up suddenly, and it's all over my body. It's really red and almost looks like little mountains popping up. The itching is so intense that I'm up all night because I have to keep rubbing it, and it's burning like crazy. I've seen a lot of doctors over the past 18 months, but no one seems to have a solution. What's going on with my skin, and why isn't anything helping?
