My shins are itchy all the time. WW doctors needed.

Even when they've been exfoliated and moisturized, shaved or not, they always, always itch.  There's no redness or anything that looks like a rash, so it isn't autoimmune.  And the itching isn't all over, just on the shins, so it's not my liver.  Does anyone have any idea what the deal is, and what I can do about it?

    Um, it's winter? 

    My shins are always itchy, too. But I can't ever say my skin's moisturized for more than 30 seconds or so. If I could bathe in moisturizer, I would. Or sleep in it. That would probably work better.

    Dammit, Flo, you told me that I was pregnant when I had some dizziness, too, and it turned out that my inner ear cilia were off.

    I'll try the Gold Bond lotion.  Does that really work?

    Don't shave and exfoliate as often.  Moisturize constantly- CeraVe is awesome.

    In all honesty, it sounds like an Athlete's Foot type of fungus.  You can get something OTC for that, and if it doesn't clear up in 10-14 days you should consult your doctor.
