Hello,
thanks for writing to HCM,

The itching of legs could be due to dermatitis or fungal infection.
It would be better if you send a photographs of the affected area of leg so that i conclude with the exact diagnosis.
Droxyl 500 is an antibiotic. How long are you using it?
Any topical creams have you applied?
Are you suffering from any other medical issues?
Any query do follow up.
Take care.
