Itchy legs

[ros1203]

Does anyone else suffer from itchy legs after running.

I am on week 8 and after every run I could claw my legs off 😩

My legs don't itch, but after every run my lefs drive me mad. 😉😃

Errr...no....🤔 Well only in the sense that I’m ‘itching’ to go on my next run! 😬

No itchy legs but today they are burning up as I fell and landed in a nettle bus so the whole of my left side is covered in stinging nettle rash (and I've fractured my thumb too )

Yes! I get this all over my body, spoke to GP and was told it’s exercise induced urticaria (basically a rash!) and it’s caused by the body going from cool to warm so quickly that all the blood rushes to the skin and makes it itchy.

I take an antihistamine now before I go out and no more skin clawing

Thank you I’ll do that in future 😀

No I don't get itchy legs from running, but I do get itchy legs when I am unable to run
