Dr. Liu Wan
Itching of the skin on the lower legs may be due to dry skin, which can be associated with vitamin deficiency. It may also result from allergic reactions, mite infestation, or localized itching caused by insect bites—particularly common in summer. There are numerous potential causes of lower-leg pruritus, including drug-induced irritation, dietary factors, or inflammatory skin conditions such as dermatitis or rashes.
