I have had itchy legs now for about 5 weeks. Its not gone away/got any better, and its only below my knees, so not on my thighs at all
About halfway down my calf, on the inner leg side of my left leg, there is a rough red patch about the size of a two penny piece, maybe slightly bigger, and something similar is starting to appear on the other leg at the same place. These patches are more itchy than the rest of the leg, but they are still itchy all over.
When I scratch, it doesnt really satisfy the itch as it feels like the itch is 'inside' the leg, and no matter where abouts I scratch, it doesnt quite go deep enough IYKWIM?
I Haven't changed washing powder or anything recently, no change that would have brought this on, tried not shaving my legs for two weeks, to see if that was irritating it, but there was no change and I caved to vanity and started shaving again as it was making no difference whether I did or not.
I know im probably going to have to see my GP because of the length of time its been there, but does anyone have any idea of what it might be?
