What Causes Intense Itching In Both Legs Below The Knees?
I am an 83 year old female and am now experiencing intense itching in both legs below the knees.I have high blood pressure which is being successfully treated with Crestor. This is not an ongoing thing - it just stated last night and woke me up. I have used Sarna Lotion for the itching and am presently using ice packs to help alleviate the itching.

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some allergic reaction of something bite or some food allergy form food took last night.
Take antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for 2-3 days.
Apply lacto-calamine locally.
Ok and take care.
