What Causes Itching Sensation In Hands And Feet?
I am a 54 year old male, I just had a complete physical last month with extensive blood work and urinalysis, everything is normal. I have had some itching on my hands and feet that develope painful welts when I scratch, it goes away within 12-16 hrs and comes back in 2-3 days, this has been going on for a little over a week now. I work in retail and walk about 6-8 miles a day and it s very uncomfortable on my feet when this happens. I looked up my symptoms up and Angioderma closely resembles my problem. Any suggestions on treatment. Thank you.
