The Intolerable Itch

1

Bit of an odd problem this, but just wonderin whether anyone else had suffered with it. Basically;
For the past few months or so i have had really itchy legs and arms but mostly just legs and particularly on my thighs. I heard that sometimes this kind of itchiness could be related to anaemia (is that the right spelling?).
Its got so bad that when im sitting at school, at home or round a friends house i have to keep constantly moving because the itch is unbearable.
Im also wondering whether someone can be allergic to denim??? :confused:

:confused:

because my legs seem to b most itchy when im wearing jeans.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

maybe you are allergic to your washing powder? demin is quite a rough material, so I wouldnt be susprised it picked up more residue of the powder. switch powder and see what happens.

I would still change to non biological and boots do a hypo allergenic fabric softner. What moisteriser/soap do you use?

E45 is very good as well. Change your soap to either aqueous creme or dove as well.

My dad got that problem - it was softener in his clothes.
