Suggest Remedy For Itching & Burning Sensation In The Feet

In the evening my feet sometimes burn so bad my husband gets me a pan of cold water to soak them. Other times they itch so bad even up as far as my ankles. I can t stop scratching then. Do you know what that could be from? ( my feet never sweat, they are dry and soft because I always wear socks. Never mind! $$$$$$$$$$

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,
I can understand your concern for the itching & burning sensation in the feet. In your kind of cases the most common cause is due to vitamin B 12 deficiency or due to increase in blood sugar status. In case if you are post 30 years or age then should go for the status of Vitamin B12 and blood sugar status.
I generally recommend control of sugar and addition of vitamin B 12 in your daily schedule. A tablet containing vitamin B12 could be included for the earliest relief. You can meet a family physician and get complete guidance for the same.
All the best
