I have lots of itching on my legs so what i should do ?

Question

if possible send pics of affected area. If you have fungal itch, then home remedies or self treatment wont work to cure it, for fungal itch I will prescribe a schedule of anti fungal cream and tabs which have to be strictly followed or the fungii may develop resistance and come back later once cured. Hence never self treat fungal itches with any self prescribed medicines or it may lead to resistance and lifelong itching problem. For temporary relief of itching, try these self-care measures: Apply an anti-itch cream or lotion to the affected area as prescribed by me after i evaluate your skin condition. Avoid scratching whenever possible. Apply cool, wet compresses, then dry the area Take a lukewarm bath atleast once in a day. Wear smooth-textured, loose cotton clothing. prevent perspiration in the affected region, lots of fresh air will ease up the affected area Do reply back for medication prescriptions.Being also a General Physician and registered dietitian, I prescribe both evidence based herbal as well as allopathic medicines complementing with dietary guidelines and home remedies carefully personalized for each individual patient.
