Dermatologist Questions Itching

What could be the cause of my back itching?

Lately I have been noticing that I am having severe itching all over my back. The itching is intense for 5 minutes and then subsides. Could it be an allergy or some kind of a skin condition?

It can be due to numerous things. First, you need to be checked for any skin lesions in the area. Dry skin can cause itch as well. Sometimes the way the spine is can cause an itch sensation instead of pain. You should be seen by your dermatologist to check your skin.

Let a dermatologist examine it.
Most likely infection by asian bugs. Go consult a derm from Asia.
