Hi all - hoping someone can help me out here. :)

For the last 3 weeks or so I have been having a really intense itch on my arms and legs. :confused: I have no idea what it is, as I haven't done anything different. I always get it in the evening, and sometimes in the morning. It's driving me bonkers. :eek: When I scratch, my skin goes bright red, and I get little bumps on it (not like huge hives or anything, but almost like goosebumps).

Could it be winter itch? If it was something I was ingesting, then would I be itchy all over, not just my arms and legs? Does anyone have any idea what this may be? Is it an allergy to something? :confused:

I'm really frustrated with this. When it starts I just can't scratching. Does anyone have any suggestions, or similar experiences??

Thanks. :)

Do you generally have really sensitive skin? I get this in the winter mostly...and sometimes in the summer. I have very fair sensitive skin and it is just dry skin that I have. To get rid of this I suggest getting a really good skin lotion like Aquafor....don't just get the cheap stuff. To help it you need a really thick good lotion to mositurize. Anyway, I don't think you need to worry. To help until your skin is back to normal take a little benedryl at night. That always helps!
