The fact of sitting for many hours or with little mobility during the day can also play a role. The combination of heat, pressure and poor ventilation of the area can intensify discomfort when lying down.
What to do if the problem recurs
Good hygiene, drying your feet well, moisturizing your skin, and wearing breathable footwear are often helpful measures. However, if the itching is intense, lasts for several days or is accompanied by skin changes, pain or loss of sensation, it is best to consult. This allows you to rule out infections, dermatitis or broader problems.
