What Causes Itchy Rashes Above The Ankles?

I am having a problem with my legs. There is awful itching at times, splotchy red rash looking things, and tender/sore to the touch The rash is mainly on the inside part of my lower legs....basically just above the ankle bones. This has been going on since before Christmas.

Hi There

It can be a kind of contact dermatitis happened because of allergic reaction to any kind of food or medicine, or due to contact with some poisonous oak or grass. Apply cold ice over the ankle area or can apply anti-histamine or steroid cream .


Good Luck
