What Causes Severe Itching On The Leg?

My foot itches. There is no foot fungus. The itch seems to be in the bone or inside my foot. It caused my whole leg to convulse in like a shooting itch up my leg. Ice helps but it persists. It is incremental. It will bother me one day then not again for months. Any clue?

Hello,

Itching in the leg may be due to some reason. It may be due to dry skin in the leg or some infection in the leg.

Apply some lotion after taking bath. Tablet chlorpheniramine and tab Levo Cetirizine twice in a day. Otherwise no need to worry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Nirav Nimavat, General & Family Physician
