Common Questions and Answers about Itchy legs scabs
itchy
It seems to happen more often when I have my legs exposed in bed and when I don’t they can also appear on my arms and stomach. They get so itchy and then turn into scabs if I scratch so my legs are covered in scabs and I don’t know what it is! My boyfriend doesn’t seem to get them at all but I do in his bed also.
I've been itchy, very very itchy on my arms, legs, and torso. Mostly my lower legs, forearms and stomach/lower back area. This has now been going on for close to three weeks. I have many small scabs on my lower legs which appeared before the itchiness began. I itch all times of the day, with it getting more severe at night. I've also developed patches of small bumps on my elbows and on the sides of my lower torso as well as on my lower back.
I read a comment for curing bilateral itchy legs a while back and it has totally worked for me and I want to share it! My legs started itching bilaterally all of a sudden and would really itch more after a shower and at night time when I was in bed. It was driving me crazy! I had no rashes or bumps but the scratching was leaving my legs bruised. Then I read a comment on this website and all I had to do was exfoliate my legs in the shower a couple of times a week! That's it!
My legs have been itchy every day since i was born. im 21 and i have always had itchy legs. when i was younger my family would all scream at me as once i started i couldnt seem to stop. the itching gets so bad that it annoys you and fustrates you and it becomes painfull.
My dad used to smack my legs where it was itching and it used to help but it didnt last too long only for about 5-10 mins and i would be scratching again.
Hello,
Scabs only appear whenever there is an injury to the skin like in case of insect bite. If the scabs are itchy then the possibility of scabies has to be explored. It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs.
Hope it helps.
I had to be induced early because of it... My legs where really itchy specially at night I couldn't even sleep...
They are mainly on my shoulders back head neck but occasionally on my legs and buttocks. Help any medicine that I can take? I am saving all my scabs in a container in which I carry with me wherever I go. Have thousands of saved scabs. There's a few microscopic bugs in the container too. I don't know what they are.
Ever since I was a child, there are times when I get really itchy feet, especially the tops of the feet and the ankles and lower shins/calves. Small scabs develop in these areas where the itching occurs (perhaps due to scratching), but eventually it all goes away (maybe a matter of days, weeks, even months). I've never paid much attention to it, never done anything about it, I usually just try to ignore it until it goes away.
Dr i am going to go crazy. My legs start itching before i go to sleep at night. it first starts of with this really nice itching feeling in a small part at the back of my legs and as soon as i give in tot he temptation to start scratching it it gets worse. It van go on for hours. My legs start getting these red bumps from scratching looks like a severe rash. As i am typing this my one leg is going crazy. Have googled for answers cause i just can not take it anymore. I want to go insane.
I have scabs all over my body which are itchy. The itch is intense and even more so when I rub the skin. The skin gets red around the scabs at the end of the day. Taking a shower is an ordeal. It's really hard not to scratch and so I just rub the scabs but there's no relief.
They are spreading and there's nothing working. I mean the creams against itchiness work when I apply them but the scabs are not getting less itchy nor less small afterwards.
Yes. My legs and arms and belly..on I have scabs everywhere! I've been using this Nivea night time renewel. Not only does it relax me and help sleep but it makes me significantly less itchy then all the other lotions I've tried.
I started when I went to a beach trip in may with a group of friends and on the last day I thought I had bug bites in the back of my leg near my knees. Then the next day IT started spreading like wild fire all over my legs, and my lower back. When I got home I went to the doctors and they said it looked like an allergic reaction to something but they didn't know what.They gave me these steriods to take which i did and this cream.

I just moved from a milder climate to a hotter one and I seem to be developing this rash on my arms and legs. Red bumps that itch like mosquito bites but are forming scabs. They are not bites and I have new ones every morning. I have already had chicken pox. There is no fever or other symptoms that I have noticed. I do not go out in the sun and the rash is only on my lower legs and arms. What is it?
It's pretty constant for me. It just varies how bad it is. Its the worst at night and on my hands and feet though.
Hi, I'm 18 years of age and live in the UK
I'm currently freaking out and on the brink of breaking down.
About 8/9 weeks ago I had sex with a guy which I thought was protected - I was very drunk.
I have no reason to believe it was unprotected - I remember him putting one on, but I can't actually remember the expierence?
I started getting some scabs on both my feet at the same time. They didnt hurt or itch. I wouldnt even know they were there if I didnt see them.
After a week I went and bought some cortozone that kills 99.9% of foot fungus. After 2 weeks no change.
Then another week after that it started creeping up my leg. Now I have these scabs all over. It seems the scabing is mostly around areas where my clothes touch. For instance the top of my socks is a bad area.
Any idea what this could be?
I am a fairly young (24 years old) female who has had issues with itchy legs for almost six years now. The issue started around the time I started going to college. The itching usually occurs at night, sometimes during the day and I unconsciously itch and itch usually until my legs bleed and then scab. I have numerous scars and scabs from this and is very embarrassing. My boyfriend, whom I live with, wakes up every night from my constant itching.
Could be an allergy and perhaps due to the keflex, but could also be eczema. I have something like that on my legs. It starts out extremely itchy but if I scratch it (I don't do this any more) then it stops itching but becomes more red and like a bunch of individual small scabs and then it goes away. I also have it on my hands but there it starts as very tiny clear/colorless blisters that end of peeling or itching. It is dyshidrotic eczema. I now try keep the area dry and moisturized.
About a week and a half ago I started itching really bad on my back and legs. Soon after which I started to develop these little red bumps that continue to itch. Some of which are scabs cause I been itching so bad. Whatever it is my boyfriend along with both of my little girls are having the same exact thing. I know its not scabies, these are just little red bumps blister like. Other than the bumps and itching we have no other symptoms.
sometimes there a little itchy but only on my lower legs. I am the only one experiencing this. as for the photo it appears to be pending admin approval. The scabs are covering small pink to redish lumps, but are forming above the skin level. when scratched away the remainder does not lower into the skin but rather looks almost like after a burn thats healed partly, where the skin is kinda shiny and smooth. this area is raised above the skin level slightly.
I have had a flaky dry yet oily scalp for a little over a year now and have been under alot of stress lately. Three days ago I noticed small spots on my scalp that look like scabs. I have tried head and shoulders, tyea tree oil shampoos, vinigar and even peroxide and nothing has helped the flakes and what not. Now I am a suspicious about the scabs. Please help!
