Great news on the scans and labs — that's a real win! But yes, itching can absolutely still happen even when results look good.

Here are some things that may help ease the itching tonight:

- Avoid scratching as much as possible
- Apply a cool compress to your legs
- Moisturize the skin
- Take an oatmeal bath
- Wear soft, loose-fitting clothing
- Use fragrance-free soaps
