My mom have been in pain with this problem for a while now. Her skin along the legs(primarily) get itchy and even a gentle hand on it will leave them red(ish). She is getting this on all of her body but legs primarily.
She is noticing it mostly when she gets back home after coming back from market/walk etc.
She has seen doctor previously for no good, unfortunately don't have the prescription presently.
