Health

I am 50 years old and have diabetes. I have noticed rashes on the lower part of my legs (around the shins or just above the ankles), and I often feel itching in that area. I typically wear jeans and sit in an office for 9 hours a day. Six months ago, I had a similar issue, and when I visited a doctor, he prescribed an anti-allergic and some ointment, which resolved the problem. However, the rashes reappeared about a month ago in the same area. Please help me understand the reason for this and suggest a permanent solution.

Ans: Though it is possible that you have rashes due to Diabetes related complications but more chances are those rashes are unrelated or may be allergic.
It would be a good idea to give it a try for some anti-allergen and then lotions. Please consult a skin specialist in person. The rashes and skin things should be better consulted and examined in person.
Thereafter, other approaches can be followed.

Best wishes,
Dr Chandrakant Lahariya
