Itchy shins

Anyone else have this? My shins are SO ITCHY all the time, especially when I put yoga pants on.

Any ideas?

Re: Itchy shins

  • Me too! I now put on oil and eucerin...I feel like shaving now irritates me!

  • Try coconut oil.  I use that on all of my really dry skin patches.

  • My lower legs recently started itching, and it's from wearing socks again now that it's cold. More lotion please!

  • Yes!  I've had this from the get go, extremely itchy shins and calves. I actually use a really course round brush to scratch my lower legs!  It gets so bad that I can't shave because my legs are irritated from the scratching.  I use Aveeno, it helps a little.

  • Mine too, they're killing me!  I thought it was because I haven't shaved in about 100 years, but it's only my shins, nowhere else.  Though I've got to say, it's better than itchy boobs.  Last time my boobs itched so bad everyday, and those you can't really scratch in public.

  • Thanks, ladies! Glad for the tips.
  • I have this too :o( & yeah thanks for the tips ladies :o)
  • Mine have been itchy lately when I am wearing pajama pants and they tickle them, too. I've been in FL since thurs. though and haven't had any problems. So I think it's just dry skin in dry weather for me.
