Suggest Remedies For Dark Spots And Itchy Skin On Legs After Waxing
I had certain skin irritation in 2009, on my legs. It started with itching, and then water and blood oozing out. Have consulted several doctors, and each one of them are of different views. One said genetic disease of blood pressure and bad blood. Another said metal allergy while another said allergic to some plants or particles in air unknown. Itching doesn t happen now except when i wax my legs. I have dark spots on legs. How to get rid of post wax itching and dark spots?

Hello,
As the itching and dark spots are particularly after wax therapy, I do suspect possible allergy to wax solution itself which is being used on regular basis. Kindly change the wax formula and see the difference if it works or not. Rest of the cases do respond to:
- Anti histamine tablets
- Local application of calamine lotion for soothing purpose
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
