Suggest Treatment For Itching Sensation On The Ankle

I have uncontrollable itching just on the inside of my left ankle... It is driving me insane. The dematologist suggested Caladryl and Benadryl and an Anti Itch Cream Geri-Hydrolac 12. In no uncertain terms don t scratch... I wear cotton gloves to stop from scratching. Do you have any solutions I haven t already tried?

Hello,

You can apply Atarax anti-itch lotion 2 to 3 times per day. Apply Halobet Es ointment 2 times per day for 10 days.

Keep the area hydrated by applying Cetaphil moisturizing lotion. Also, take tablet Vozet at nighttime for 10 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Priya Mohod Shirsat
