Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Burning And Itching Sensation On The Legs?
Am having a flare-up of capillaritis, I believe. Last had this in August of 2015. Red welts and patches on both legs. Itching and burning terribly. Only relief I have found is running cold water on my legs periodically. Had prescriptions for cortisone creams fron dermatologist and don t find they work. Anything new on this subject?
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. You can try putting benadryl cream to alleviated itching. Another thing you could try is over the counter compression stockings.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Samuel Parmar
