The itching on different parts of the body which is especially movie at night could be because of infestation in a condition called scabies. Please get yourself evaluated from a certified as metallurgist who can examine new properly and advise the treatment. Omnacortil is a steroid and in a controlled fashion it does work well and is visually give them to tide over the initial itching that is present however the treatment that you have mentioned does not cover the root cause of the problem. Kindly get an online consult or meet with a certified dermatologist and take the treatment. Hope this was helpful.
