Persistent Itching below the knees
Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing persistent itching below the knees, ankles & feet not any other parts of the body for more than 6 months now. I went under few treatments but nothing worked well. The itching is spreading others too by cloths, towels & bedsheets. I really afraid it may spread to children’s too. I tried to find the good dermatologist through online, referral etc but was not effective. Since, can you anyone please help me in this regard to get well soon.
Thank you
