Kindly elaborate your query
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.
I can understand your concern for itching on upper arms and on back across shoulder blades.
After reading your query and analyzing the complete situation I can make out that your condition is possibly related to either "Xerosis" (dryness of skin) as an aging factor or to weather condition only.
In view to help you better I request you to kindly elaborate certain points:
- Since how long you have this itching condition.
- What is the grade of itching- mild/moderate/severe.
- Is the itching really troublesome all day through or only some specific hours of day or is present at night time also disturbing your sleep.
- What is present weather condition in Louisiana, US.
- Do you feel any changes in skin like any rash or change of color any thing. If yes then I request you to kindly upload good resolution pictures of your affected areas so that I can analyze it better. For uploading the pictures you have a facility on the right side of the page or can send on:
