itchy hands

[georgejackson]

Not sure if this is an MS symptom or not but i get very itchy hands and feet. So bad i cannot stop scratching, this happens a few times a week and the only way to stop it is to stop scratching and it will eventually go on its own.

Also getting this odd cold. frozen patch on my face, only occasionally and only lasts a few minutes but this is something that has not happened to me before.

Thanks George

Hi

I, too, get very itchy hands, feet and ankles.  I use Eurax cream and Telfast 180 and they work a treat.  I normally get my itches at night after I have gone to bed and it just drives me crazy.  That's why I am out of bed now at 3.00am in the morning, looking up this site to see if there is a connection to the itch with MS.  I have not yet received an official diagnosis but hopefully when I see my MS specialist in December, I may get some answers.
All the best of luck

  I get in mainly on my legs and I will be scratching till I bleed before stoping but I have a hard time feeling cuts as I have to see the blood before I end up having too look for the cut, but boy can I feel the itch (go figure eh)

Hi,I don't have a solution to your itchy hands and feet but I have the same problem.But it is only when I go to bed at night and the itching is really really awful.And it lasts for a good half hour for sure,it drives me crazy!And it also occurs a few times a week.I have tried different creams and such nothing seems to help.If you come up with anything please let me know.
Thanks,Pokum
