Itching Rant

I ITCH ALL OVER! Starting to get annoyed because it's keeping me awake and I love my sleep. Now it's my feet. They are swollen, itchy and have these knots on them. Its so bad that they're bleeding bc I broke the skin. I put some cortisone ointment on it to no avail. Ahhhhh I hope this is due to pregnancy and nothing else.My job has me on my feet alot so I figure that may be the cause.

    A few women on my other BMB had ICP, which has the main symptom of being itchy.  You may want to look into that and bring it up with your doctor, as it can have some really crappy consequences.

  • My legs have been itching really bad after shaving. In addition to removing the conditioning strip, I have been applying witch hazel after I shave, and it has helped a ton... might be worth a try.

  • Yes, please call your doctor. I mentioned this in another post about itching, but my doctor specifically told me to call if I had itching on my hands or feet. You may want to just check in on Monday to be sure that they aren't concerned. Fx it's nothing and goes away soon on it's own!
