Why are there scratches on my leg when i didnt do nothing to scratch them? its been going on for a while and i wondered where they were coming from?

Itching?: The most likely cause- look at the mirror. You are probably scratching your legs while sleeping. If you have itching on your legs often, try applying a moisturizer there regularly especially within a few minutes after bathing and see if this helps.
