A member asked:
I have noticed that my hands and feet have become mildly itchy. almost like an ant bite kind of itch/burning. i am 35 weeks pregnant. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This is normal in many women during their last trimester especially. With increased fluids in the body the toes and fingers will have more swelling at times and will naturally tend to get a bit itchy. If you are concerned make sure to check in with your doctor who monitors your blood pressure. Stay hydrated and keep some form of mild exercise if possible. Congratulations!

I have been having extremely itchy skin. Starts on hands and feet. Sometimes on the rest of my body. There are no marks to show any signs of rash. That is until I claw myself to death.
