Hi! I was wondering if anyone else has had a crawling sensation in one localized spot. It’s on the top of my foot. It’s not really a tingling, but more like an itchy, feels like something is tickling it or crawling on it kind of sensation.

Anyone experience this?

Yes, I've experienced this in many places (at different times). I actually just had the sensation in my left foot a few minutes before I came here and saw your post. :D

Literally been dealing with this in both feet for about six months. It is the same spots as well. Has me a bit concerned that it is something horrible. But it could also just be the 40th thing I think I have.

Yeah, I have had it in different places from time to time, but for quite a while focused the right side on my vulva that has the same sensation. And it's not a common place to have that. Because of that reason it gives me anxiety even though I saw a dr, it makes me think that there is something going on there. If it doesn't go away, I plan to go see a dermatologist.
I know that such sensations can have a neurological cause, or anxiety related, but why on the weirdest places of all?

What is HA making you believe you have?

well, something sinister related to skin? Who knows?
But the most important thing is that the sensation is annoying and causes anxiety.
So if it doesn't go away, I will ask drs for a detailed check up there.

How long have you had it?

For many weeks, 2 months maybe a bit more.
But before that I've always had that burning sensation there coming and going.
So we will see.

I was never given antibiotics, some antifungal cream etc and 3 days ago finished the 3 weeks treatment.
That's why I am waiting a while to see if it will go away or not.
