Itching on arms and legs

2017-09-02 05:08:42
I don't know why but suddenly my arms and legs itch a lot. I woke up one morning and had marks on my arms as of mosquito bites ( it might be possible because my hostel room has mosquitoes) but bites don't itch this much. It is now 4-5 days of itching and it relieves a bit after i wash my hands and legs and i am applying betnovate-n for prevention.

Please don't keep on applying steroids like that . We have to treat the root cause after proper diagnosis and treatment suggests Dr.Suruchi Puri with a rich experience of 17 years in dermatology. I can visit the clinic if desired so st B-2/31 janak Puri and nearest metro station is janak Puri east or can call at 9868080 340 , meanwhile you can take xyzal tab in case it's itching a lot . You can visit our website also www.drsuruchipurimakeovers.com . We have to rule out Scabies in your case
