After this disease occurs, mainly produces the body's immune system damage, thus leading to secondary infections or tumors and so on. Itching can occur in a variety of ways, most of which may be caused by itching, such as an allergic reaction, or by localized inflammation of the skin, which may be caused by mosquito bites, or by a systemic disease. For example, showing liver disease or kidney disease, eventually forming renal insufficiency, or liver insufficiency, at this time because the metabolites in the body can not be excreted, then it may also stimulate the peripheral nerves of the skin, eventually produce itching symptoms, so these itching has a variety of possibilities, not necessarily AIDS.
