When a character suddenly becomes afflicted by an intense itch, and they can't scratch it. The intensity of the itch will often scale upwards with their inability to take care of it, especially if they are tied up or busy holding a sensitive package full of Explodium. Nearly always Played for Laughs, the victim of an Inconvenient Itch will often be left begging for their companions (or even antagonists) to help them out. If the afflicted character is left tied up and alone, the humor of the situation may arise from their attempts at contorting their body in an effort to find relief. Though the Inconvenient Itch can hit any part of the body, the nose is a popular target. A subtrope of Rule of Funny. Compare Amusing Injuries, Potty Emergency, and Anti-Sneeze Finger. This trope is a typical result of being Bound and Gagged in comedic works. |

One The Far Side comic had a hospital patient in a body cast visited by someone who kept babbling about how he'd once had a cast on his leg and gotten an itch underneath that drove him crazy, implying that the patient will be unable to put that idea out of his head and will suffer unscratchable itches of his own as a result. | |

In the Discworld, a young witch finds herself being sexually harassed by a soldier, who should have known better. She wishes him an itch. The sort that will come on while he is tanding at attention on the parade square while a drill sergeant is watching for the merest movement to find fault with. And that itch is going to become more uncomfortable, soldier. And you are going to want to scratch it. Even though your sergeant is then going to scream in your face from inches away. As described in the works of A.A. Pessimal, that witch was not bothered again. | |

Criminal Minds: Played for Drama in one episode. The unsub has delusions and genuinely believes the government injected live bugs into his arm when he got a vaccine, causing constant, uncontrollable itching. Everyone's attempt to explain to him that there are no bugs inside him serves to drive his paranoia. He ends up kidnapping people and covering them in bugs to subject them to the same itching sensation to try to get them on his side. He also joins a support group for people with a downplayed version of the disorder (the itching without the delusions). One of them is easily swayed to his side because he can provide her an explanation to why she itches, even if he has no proof for it. The group's leader is much more rational, but when the BAU comes around asking about the unsub, she still genuinely believes it's a government plot to disperse them so they don't get too close to the truth. | |

On How I Met Your Mother, Marshall realizes he has head-lice halfway through a job interview, and starts "discreetly" trying to scratch it. Eventually, it's too much for him and he screams out "I HAVE LICE!". Suffice to say, he did not get the job. | |

Friends: Phoebe and her current boyfriend get chickenpox during the only weekend they can spend together. They end up covered in itchy marks that will leave scars if scratched. Rachel resorts to duct taping oven mitts to their hands to stop them scratching each other. | |

On an episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, two men must face a magical test to win Sabrina's heart, which involves running through an obstacle course to reach Sabrina, who is sinking into a pit of quicksand. At a point where her hands are submerged, seemingly pinning her arms to her sides, Sabrina says: "Help, someone save me! Or scratch my nose..." On another episode, Libby was placed in the stocks during a school trip. Naturally, her nose started to itch. |

On Dexter's Laboratory, Dexter gets the chicken pox and is told not to scratch the pox, or he'll turn into a chicken. He tries ways of keeping from scratching, even restraining himself completely, but nothing works and he eventually goes on a scratching spree... after which he indeed turns into a chicken. | |
