Have any of you experienced this?

It's not on the surface so I can't just scratch it to relieve it. It drives me crazy sometimes because it always happens when I workout now and doesn't go away sometimes until the following day. Tightening the muscles helps, but what else can I do about it? How and why does this happen? This has been 2 years now that this has been going on. Please help! I greatly appreciate all of your replies. Toucanlove

I have experienced all over itching when running on the treadmill when I begin to get hot and sweat, but I've talked to others who've said it is normal. Good luck! It sounds frustrating!!
