I have been walking on hard floors for sum tears now at my job. For about the past 3 or 4 years now my legs and genital area have an intense itchy or burning feeling. It isn't crabs!this usually happens after working and I'm off the floor relaxin. Do I have poor circulation? If so what can I do?

Yes, it can be a sign of poor circulation, related to being on your feet all day, on hard floors. Could be your lower back too. Please make an appointment ASAP to get this checked.

You might want to read through the following and see if any of the listed symptoms are like the symptoms you are experiencing:

What do you disagree with? You asked and I offered an opinion and a website that you can read through. The website, WrongDiagnosis, is for things that are commonly misdiagnosed. You talk about the pain and burning in your legs - look up on that website and find, "Pain-like sensations often described as pins-and-needles, prickling or burning sensations are called paresthesias; see leg paresthesias. All pain or pain-like sensations need prompt medical investigation. (Source: WD Writers)"

I agree with Shy, sorry gal I got to spread the love.

It very well could be a sign of poor circulation. Another good website is WebMD - Better Information. Better Health. (http://www.webmd.com) There you can use the virtual doctor to help in figuring out what is wrong.

However, it is important that you get this checked out ASAP. Maybe (after reading your other thread) you and your mother should go to the doctor together. It may make her feel more at ease.
