    The little lumps of fat on the inner side of each thigh, just under my groin area, are so unbelievably itchy! I am scared I am going to get to the point of making them bleed!!! (As I had previously managed to do on the skin behind my knees when they got all itchy). The itch is not really the skin, feels like it's underneath. I do use bio oil regularly, that said, I could do with more water, but the skin doesn't look dry.

    The reason that I refer to them as little inner lumps of fat on the inner side of my thigh, is that now my thighs are funny shaped, I have a small thigh gap right up at the top of my legs, under my groin, so the fat sort of touches in an odd shape a few inches down.

    Why is this happening!? They are not rubbing as far as I am aware. Is it because I am about to lose fat in that area? Get stretch marks? To get a more prominent thigh gap?! Argh, I want to lose upper body weight damnit.

    I look so crazy rubbing (not scratching) my jeans/thighs in the worst place possible, at work. Slow rubbing on thighs, relief on face = not good. :tongue:

    Any experience of outcomes appreciated.

    If it is, indeed, an itch from skin sensitivity, you will find some relief by adding about 1Tbs of ground flaxseed per day to your diet.
