Hello Doctor,
I’ve been experiencing itching on my hips and legs whenever I walk for exercise. It usually starts after a few minutes of walking, and it can be pretty uncomfortable. What could be causing this, and how can I treat or manage it?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
It sounds like you may be experiencing exercise-induced urticaria, a condition where hives or itching develop during physical activity. This can happen when your body reacts to exercise-induced changes in temperature or circulation. The basic treatment often involves taking antihistamines, either before exercise or on a daily basis, to help manage symptoms. If the itching persists or worsens, or if you notice any other unusual symptoms, I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for a more thorough evaluation.
Thanks
