omg the itching

NEEDS TO STOP.

Both legs, from the knee down, are itching like it's their job.  And red and bumpy.  WTF?  An hour ago, I was fine, and now I want to claw my own legs off.

razor burn??

no - I haven't shaved in a long long time.  I had my legs waxed, but that was like a week and a half ago.  they're still pretty much hairless.

usually that happens to me when I go out in the grass... but I'm allergic to grass. they make clear calamine lotion/gel stuff now, it really helps. I think I bought the generic target brand recently.

i've got some cortisone cream that should help.  i'm tired of being allergic to everything I encounter and just have no idea what i got into this time...

Maybe increased blood flow?  Exercise can make my skin itch for this reason.  GL, itchiness is the worst - I'm glad we're finally out of bug bite season.

Have you tried Aveeno lotion? That usually helps. Suave even makes an oatmeal lotion that I actually like more than some of the others I have tried.

It could be caused by increased blood flow, I know that this is what's causing my legs to itch. I put my anti-stretch mark lotion on my legs last night and I have to see that they are less itchy than when I put regular lotion on them.
