I've evidently got too much time on my hands with some of the damnedest things I set around and think and wonder about...

Why do y'all suppose it is that when we have any kind of open sore caused by any means imaginable that when it really starts healing it begins to itch? And sometimes itch at an almost uncontrollable urge?
We all know that by scratching at it to the point of breaking it open again is to open an invitation for infection... let alone being a detriment to healing so why do we have that urge too scratch to begin with?
To me it almost stands to reason that the continued evolution of we Homo Sapien got fouled up along the way either that or it was something the Great Mystery overlooked but surely that can't be true as The Great Mystery being all things Omni- overlooks nothing...
And barring all these questions just when and how did we learn to quit/stop scratching at a sore or wound and if we didn't learn it ourselves - - - then who taught us?!?!?
