What Are The Treatments For Itching In Legs And Back?
I been having these itching area on my legs and back. They start as a small pink spot and then become larger and itch. I can scratch them and I put an antibiotic on them. They go away and leave a scab. They return days or so later. What is this and what can I do to prevent this from coming back and stop it now.
