Suggest Treatment For Itchy Spots In Legs And Feet

Hi - a few months ago I got spots appearing on my legs and feet, not that itchy, just visible and sometimes pussy. I went to Zante, they were really bad on my feet the first day... But by the end of the holiday everything had gone. Came home, got a cream to out on if it appeared again, it did, the cream helped.. But now it s run out and they re back again! A little bit itchy when my feet or legs are warm but the rest of the time I barely notice them. I sit in an office all day and it tends to be in the afternoon I notice the itch... Is it a circulation issue?

Hi,

I can understand your concern for itchy spots in legs and feet. There can be multiple possibilities of the condition and most probably it appears to be related to contact dermatitis or an allergic process to some contact allergen.

In my patients with your kind of condition I generally prefer to prescribe an application of steroid based cream such as cortisone and an antihistamine tablet such as cetrizine. If despite using the therapy there are more eruptions then it is better to get analyzed by a dermatologist.
All the best.
