Itchy legs, no rash!

The same has been goin on for 3 years, whenever i wear jeans i get this itch that doesnt stop until i take them off. I dont know if its the fabric, but the same happens when i wear different types of pants. I dont feel it when i wear sweats though. I have no rash, and even if i wear cream, the itching doesnt stop, even though it does help control it, just a little.

Hi,
How are you? This could be due to irritation, allergic reaction or skin conditions such as dermatitis. Try to avoid scratching to prevent skin breaks and secondary bacterial infection. If you have history of allergic reaction, have this checked by your doctor or have an allergic testing done. Over-the-counter antihistamine medications may help provide relief. Take care and do keep us posted.

I would say It is most likely dry skin and fabric irritating the skin. If the sweat pants arnt bothering you, it sounds linked to tight fabric, or the fabric resting and chafing on the skin at all times. That can just be irritating, or allergy to fabric detergents. Hopefully thats all, good luck!
