Itching in pregnancy
I'm 32 weeks pregnant.
Since last 2-3 days I'm having itching in hands & feet. Not specifically in the palms & soles. But near the elbows & near the knees & ankles.
My dr advised to use candid cream & coconut oil locally for 1 week & then again visit her.
After using this I'm having some relief.
I want to know that is this something serious??
