Itching and Burning Skin

I've had itching, burning and tingling on my thighs and face for the last few months. I am new to a cold climate and this is my first winter. I was wondering if dry skin and the cold weather would make my skin feel like that? The symptoms are localized to the tops of my thighs and the right side of my face. There is no visible rash of any kind and moisturizers don't seem to help.

It may be psoriasis from lack of sunshine.  

Try taking vitamin D supplements and try Psoriaflora cream for your legs.  Try a vitamin C cream on your face.  I have psoriasis and that is helping me.

Oh yes. And there is one catch... :( It will be necessary to stop eating gluten as well if you want to completely discontinue the rash since it is the gluten that carries the metals through the skin. This way the boron will instead carry the metals out through your urine. If this diet is too strict for you, take it up with your government, who are the ones spraying the marshmallow snakes in the sky (the lines of cloud that come from certain air planes).

My girlfriend and I had this same rash for about four or five months and after some prayer, we stumbled across some information that made sense. There are lots of heavy metals in our air right now from the marshmellow snakes in the sky. When you eat gluten, these metals which we are breathing in are pushed out from our skeletal and muscular matter through our skin, which is what causes the itching that everyone is experiencing. Start taking borax. It is a naturally occurring mineral and it binds itself with heavy metals and pulls them from your system as well as helps regulate the hypothallamus, which is also responsible for the body's usage of minerals. 20 Mule Team is the common brand in U.S grocery stores. Start out with one eighth of a tsp dissolved in a litre of water and dranken throughout the day for five days a week. You may gradually increase the amounts after some time. You would need to eat at least a whole box of borax to overdose on it, though the taste is a little strange! Not only will this clear up your skin but it will also increase your energy levels, open your nerve pathways, clear your mind, improve your memory, increase the lucidity of your dreams, increase your sexual vitality, open your endocerine system, strengthen your bones and joints and elevate your mood! : )... Spread the word if you will!

Early psoriasis or early eczema or early seborrheic dermatitis, yeast, contact dermatitis, ringworm, etc:  They can all look very similar, unfortunately.  

I went to many, many different dermatologists with my skin issues, and none of them were impressed except to say I had inflammation, said it might be this or that, and prescribed the same worthless medicine in varying strengths.  It was maddening to have the itching and no help.

Would psoriasis just manifest as dry looking skin? What is going on on my face doesn't look like the pictures of psoriasis. Thank you so much for your input, I'm going to try both of those!
