Hand tremor (primarily my left
handHand or foot spasms
Hand tremor) itch. It does not seem to be an itch associated with a rash or dry skin. It usually passes after some scratching and time. Does this indicate anything neurological?

Hello Michael,
Occasionally itchy palms can be seen as one of the symptoms of
carpalCarpal tunnel release
Carpal tunnel syndrome tunnel syndrome. There are usually other symptoms that also occur in patients with
carpalCarpal tunnel release
Carpal tunnel syndrome tunnel syndrome which include tingling of fingers, pain in the hand which awakens the patient from sleep and in long standing cases weakness of the hands can occur. However itchy palms by itself are not an indication of a specific neurologic disease. You may want to make sure that you do not have some type of dermatitis (inflammation of the skin) that could account for your symptoms.
