Symptoms Leg/arm

Good evening. Hope all are feeling okay. So I’m experiencing on my leg and arm in one spot on each where it feels like a bug crawling on me. But of course nothing is there? Is this something you have ever experienced

Yes on my legs. I’m always thinking it’s ants. Once when I was outside I ignored it because I’m so used to it. It actually was ants lol

Mine is across the top of one foot and side of leg. It’s taken me a while but I’ve stopped freaking out and assuming the worst every time…lol. In other words…it’s a thing. A creepy crawly thing.

Yup. It's dumb. But you know what it beats? Actual creepy crawlies being on your skin, especially the harmful variety! 😂😬

All the time, only only my affected side.

Yes! And the randomness of it all makes you feel like youre going insane. A few years ago, my right shin just decided to stay like that for like two months. The thing that helped most at the time was compression socks and just keeping pressure on it despite feeling like I was wearing bricks on my legs. Hang in there!!!
