Persistent Itchy Skin Patches on Legs

2025-04-19 16:06:09
I’ve been experiencing persistent skin patches on my legs and other parts of my body for the past six months. Initially, they were itchy and appeared occasionally, coming and going. But now they stay constantly and have started appearing in more places. They started as small bumps and dark spots, some looking like clogged pores or ingrown hairs, and have gradually increased in number. The texture feels rough and sometimes dry. I haven’t changed any skincare products or routines recently.

From what you’ve described, it may be a chronic follicular issue like keratosis pilaris, frictional folliculitis, or post-inflammatory pigmentation. The rough, bumpy texture and dark spots align with perifollicular keratin build-up and mild inflammation.
Next Steps
I’d suggest you consult a nearby dermatologist for a proper clinical evaluation. Till then you can use a gentle exfoliating body wash with salicylic or lactic acid 2–3 times a week, and apply a urea or ceramide-based moisturiser daily. Avoid scrubbing or using OTC steroid creams.
Health Tips
Persistent or spreading patches may need dermoscopy or biopsy for confirmation—so don’t delay seeking care if symptoms continue.
