My 3mo keeps scratching his face

His nails are all cut to the shortest but he digs his nails in his head and face all the time. I’ve got a feeling his face is itchy. Any one experienced this before? He doesn’t cry or anything but I keep seeing new scratches like this appear. Any remedies? Should I see a PD or a baby skin doctor?

At this age, they’re exploring a lot with their hands. I gave my little one lots of things to hold.. rattles, books, etc. I put her in on the play gym so her hands were busy hitting the dangling toys rather than scratching herself
