Itchy shins

[LongLang]

I get it all the time. I found some thing called winter itch on Google. Seems to cover all the symptoms. All due to the air being drier when It's col, add a hot shower to the equation and your skin is going to be dried out.
I always blamed it on the Mrs changing soap powders/conditioner (it could still be that I suppose) but this 'winter itch' seems to fit the bill.

Cheers all. Just glad its not cat aids.

The heat/cold theory holds up because Ive recently started sitting in the armchair that's right by the fire.

Thought the topic was about another Oasis spin off group.

I, too, thought it was a great name for a band!!

Most of these type of problems are due to stress or temperature change. The latter means your skins dries out quite quickly.

Solution? Moisturise the affected areas.

Should go away after a few weeks.

Bloody interesting i've found this thread. I've had this past few weeks and it's never happened before to my recollection

Hell BlueMoon is full of geriatric old codgers who are obviously bleeding the NHS dry.

You are all drinking too much in a room where the central heating is on too high and you are wearing long johns.





Great thread by the way.

Never heard of this before must be a bloke thing


However random itching when there is not obvious rash all over the body could be a sign of liver trouble


If it's just dry skin, change of temperature thing Aveeno cream is he best moisturiser and Aveeno shower oil, you have to buy it at the pharmacy counter

You need to wear boxing gloves, or at least cut your fingernails short.

Just to make sure I've got this right, it's Aveeno, yes? Aveeno.
