The exact cause is not known, but could be related to an allergy to sweat itself. Sweat triggers the release of histamine causing itchiness in the legs or other parts of the body. It may also present with warm skin and small (up to 2-3 mm) bumps, which usually persist from 30 minutes to 2 hours. Some people may respond with a positive patch test to their own sweat.
What are burning legs? Burning legs can result from a number of causes, including damage to nerves in the legs from exposure to extreme heat or cold or to toxic substances. Burning legs might also result from a circulation problem that impairs blood flow to the legs, a leg injury, or intense exercise.
