Vicodin is one of the most commonly abused prescription pain medications today. One of the most widely prescribed medications, Vicodin and its related medications, loricet, loritab percodan, and oxycontin are opioid-based pain medications. Vicodin is a derivative of opium, which is also used to manufacture heroin. Individuals with a Vicodin addiction become deeply depressed, and their thinking, attention, and judgement become impaired. Their thoughts dwell on the next high, although they tell themselves they are still taking Vicodin for pain or to avoid the withdrawal symptoms. Individuals with a Vicodin addiction often truly feel physical pain, but it is psychologically produced. \nThe symptoms of Vicodin withdrawal include but are not limited to:\n\nrestlessness \n\nmuscle pain \n\nbone pain \n\ninsomnia \n\ndiarrhea \n\nvomiting \n\ncold flashes \n\ngoose bumps \n\ninvoluntary leg movements \n\nwatery eyes \n\nrunny nose \n\nloss of appetite \n\nirritability \n\npanic \n\nnausea \n\nchills \n\nsweating

Did you tell the doc you still have itching? I recommend Switching meds.  There are usually three or four meds that can do the same thing with slight variations.  The first med prescribed isn't always the best for you.

Our skin has a defense system that makes us aware of annoying things that touch our body. Sometimes that annoying thing is just a fly. But sometimes we come into contact with something like poison ivy that causes a reaction in our skin. Poison ivy or bug bites cause an allergic response that keeps our skin itchy for a while.

Do you have any other medical problems, or are you taking any medications?  I have fibromyalgia and get the same stinging, burning in my skin when I have flair ups.  Also my doctor had me on Vicodin for chronic pain and I had to switch to another pain killer because it was making the burning worst.
