The 88-year-old doctor advises: Don’t ignore these 6 common itchy areas in the elderly!

1. Calves or lower legs

When itching appears persistently, especially in the early morning, and does not improve with creams or common treatments, it may be an early sign of lymphoma.

2. Mid-back

If the itching is fixed in one spot, especially after meals, it could be related to problems in the pancreas, even early-stage cancer.
