I have a place on my right arch that has been itching like a motherf.... for the past several months... there's NO redness.... there's NO bump... there's NO rash.... there's NO dry skin.... there's NOTHING EXCEPT THE ITCH, and it's confined to a very small area. I've looked online and can find no answers.... anyone here know what the hell it could be? It's driving me crazy!!!!!!!

Apart from contributing some facetious comedy line, Jim, i can be no help whatsoever on this.

I suppose you could get a stone-cleaning company in to jetwash it?

Jim, have you tried any OTC treatments at all? Maybe Cortisone or something?

Well... from what I read on those two sites, neither are any help, because, as I stated in my initial post, there's no redness, bump, rash, dry skin... nothing at all... just the itch!

I'd say there is something there, but it's not showing. If a moisturizer like Vaseline Intensive Care didn't work, and hydrocortisone didn't work, and there's nothing that your sole is coming in contact with that could cause chemical or mechanical irritation, then maybe you should see a dermatologist.
But don't let them do a biopsy. I went to a dermatologist once when I found a black blotch on the back of my thigh. I only ever got to see her physician's assistants, not the doctor, and they did a scrape biopsy. They took such a deep gouge out of me, it took over a month to heal, during which time I had to keep putting on petroleum jelly and changing the dressing. And it was nothing, just a "pigmented purpura," a harmless blood stain under the skin.
I think they knew at a glance it wasn't skin cancer, but kept me in fear and did the procedure because it's a revenue item. So see a specialist if all else fails, but don't let them walk all over you.

Just remember: when scratching it, don't use that same hand for ... other handy things, if you know what I mean. That's an itch you don't want!
