What Causes Redness In Crease Of Knees And Itching In Thighs?
Hi. It started with a redness in the crease of my bent knees. Then became red inside the knee on my fleshy area, now going up inner thigh. Also and area on upper outer right thigh which is more noticable after a shower only. No red raised spots but have had in the middle of the night itchy feeling on inside thighs. I also have an area the size of a fifty cent piece on my left outside ankle. I have had shingles before on right way upper inside thigh area about three years ago. I have tried liquid Benedryl to stop the itching in the middle of the night. This has gone on since Mid June. Shingles? Stress? Have had no major changes to hygiene routine or laundry soaps. I do see my Dr. again next month taking care of an incision for Basal Cell Carcinoma which he did not get all removed yet and also in 2011 had an area on my outer right arm removed due to Spreading Malignant Melanoma. Any advice?
