Hi and welcome,
Why would you think vaping is the source of your "itch"?
What did your doctor say when you asked him/her?
Cheers
I
Welcome to the forum!
About the itching, what juice are you vaping? High nicotine levels and PG levels can cause the itching effect. I had something similar in the beginning and it was because the juice had a lot of PG, some people are having issues with high PG.

Welcome to the friendly bunch 
May just be a slight allergy to one of the ingredients but this is pretty rare. I would suggest you visit the doctor before you blame the vape.

hi and welcome to efc,never had an itch caused by vaping,and never come across anyone who has.as stated it is most likely an allergy of some type.
hello and welcome to ecf
well it is that time of year when the pollen count is high.....
unless you had a severe allergic reaction to pg I highly doubt that this is vaping related and if you had a reaction to pg you would notice more that your tongue was swollen and throat closed off and tightness in your chest, not an exterior skin itching.... may want to talk to your doctor about eczema or other skin irritants (pollen, dander, dust, ect)

Welcome and glad you joined.
Itching can be more serious than skin deep, suggest seeking a doctors opinion.
"Itching is often triggered by histamine, a chemical in the body associated with immune responses. It causes the itch and redness you see with insect bites, rashes and skin dryness or damage. Histamine is released by the body during allergic reactions, such as those to pollen, food, latex and medications."

Look we're not doctors, talk to one. I am PG sensitive but I didn't get itches.
As I transitioned, I had MANY an itch to smoke a cigarette, but I survived them.
Now, I "itch' to spend money on vape gear but I'm getting a handle on that too. LOL.
You could be allergic to something, as a practitioner of the "dark" counseling arts, I will also point out that psychosomatic reactions can and do happen while switching. The body is an odd thing alright.
I am by NO MEANS saying that is it, I don't do counseling on line either I am just saying it could be LOTS of things.
So step one: Doctor.

Years ago when i tried stopping smoking I did get an "itchy" spot on my side. The Doctor (yes i am male and went to the doctor) said it maybe related to quitting, maybe something else and said just try Benadryl, stopped within a day. Suggest you see your Doctor in the first place.
Oh yes and by the way........................Welcome to ECF
