There are several possible reasons why a person may experience intense itching on their legs while sleeping. One possible cause is diabetic neuropathy, which is a type of nerve damage that can occur in people with diabetes. This condition can cause tingling, numbness, and itching in the legs and feet. Another possible cause is dry skin, which can become more common as people age. Get Checked.
