Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy rashes on elbow and back of legs which is very common mainly due to fungal infection.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to
- Avoid wearing synthetic clothes and wear loose cotton track pants.
- Keep this area clean and dry.
- Apply calamine lotion over rashes.
If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor will examine physically along with blood tests if required and may prescribe medications.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
