Does your shin itch when you quit smoking?
Nicotine reduces circulation to the cells just below the surface of the skin (this is why women who smoke look much older for their age than those who do not). As the circulation returns, there can be random stimulation of the pain-sensing nerves beneath the skin that is expressed as itching.
Smoking can also cause permanent damage to the skin of the lower legs. This often results in dry skin that itches. (The writer has this problem, and he stopped smoking 17 years ago.) A good body lotion with a touch of hydrocortisone cream, applied after showering, should keep you comfortable, but we suggest having it checked by a dermatologist, as the itching could be symptomatic of something else that coincidentally began when the smoking stopped.
This sort of problem is especially likely if you are obese, glucose intolerant, or diabetic, so you should be screened for those as well.
