Good start: Moisturizing dry skin is important. If it is red, discolored, growing larger the best advice is to be seen in person. This way your doctor can give you more advice. Please see your doctor or upload a picture here. Cheers.

My left lower leg itches a lot. The itching sometimes can get quite discomforting and I have to scratch it. The skin is becoming darker than the rest of the leg and I can see somewhat dark lines under the skin.
