Why Do I Get A Crawling Feeling Above The Ankle?
I am a 47 yr old female, currently on my draining menstruation cycle. I am not in great health but working on it. I have been doing Pilates for about 2 weeks and feel great but my cycle is too heavy that I didn t workout yesterday. I keep getting a feeling as if something is crawling above the ankle in the front of right leg. I look at it and there is nothing there but this has been ongoing since night before. Almost a flutter its so weird and kind of scary.

Hello,
Itching feeling on the leg may be due to allergy or atopy or cutaneous larva migrans etc. Use anti histamine like Levocetrizine and Moterleukast once a day for five days. apply moisturizer cream locally. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. If symptoms not improved please consult your dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
