Severe itching on legs and rashes

2020-07-24 14:53:55
Hi Past two months, I got severe itching on my legs fully and in chest area. I was scratching continuously and it turned to be red rashes and some worn out black areas. I am unable to control scratching in legs. It's bad near buttocks area. I tried applying oil and moisturizer. But also its itching. It has been three months now but also it didnt stop. And many rashes have developed. Skin is very dry. Please suggest me a way to get rid of this. Thanks Sivasankari
