I have this problem. My feet are intensely itchy all the time! It's mostly the bottoms and sides of my feet that are itchy. My dad has diabetes and I've been told that a diabetic's feet will itch like this. I've been checked for diabetes and I don't have it. My next thought was well maybe they're just too dry...so I put lotion on them all the time...they're still itchy as hell. They itch worse when my feet are hot, too. If you'd see me I'll be moving my feet against the floor constantly because they itch so bad. It's so bad for me at night that I spend half the night awake trying to ease the itching so I can actually sleep.

I thought maybe I'd try some anti-itch ointment so I went out and bought some of that...my feet still itch! It doesn't matter what I do, they keep me constantly annoyed and constantly itching them. Anyone have any suggestions as to what may cause this or as to what I can do about this?

Lexi,
I had been thinking about posting about feet myself tonight.

I'm sorry yours are so itchy.

I have pain in both of mine, and they also itch quite a bit. Some of the times, it is because my shoes are too tight. Also, it is quite dry in Kansas, which I think is a contributing factor. Do yours itch more in Winter?

Have you tried creams especially for feet? There is a cucumber cream that I really love.

Keep me posted.
