Itchy body and legs when running

Wipe your [censored] more thoroughly...........you're suffering from
gravitational fecal migration.

Just been running for the first time in months (oh alright I admit
it....years) and wondered if anyone had a solution for runners itchy leg
syndrome. I've read conflicting things about it on the internet - its
apparently either a histamine mediated response, or due to unconditioned
capillaries. If anyone can tell me why I itch so much when I run I might
just venture out again.

Cheers

Have you started a new medication recently? When taking different
antidepressants I've experienced itchy legs, arms, and chest while
running.

I think your faeces has gravitationally migrated and started coming out of
your mouth in the form of words

Histamine is your body's allergy response (hence antihistimines to
control allergies). More accurately, it mediates your body's response
to intruders, allergies being that your body goes overboard in responding.
So think a bit about whether you've been exposing yourself, especially
legs, to new substances.

More likely, at a guess, is that not unusual capillary response.

Of course your doctor can speak more specifically, and has the more
extensive general knowlege than a tour of the web (or newsgroup), and
get see and inspect the body in question.
