Do Others Suffer From “burning” Skin?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Since my fibro developed, I have periods of profuse sweating that wont stop, times I’m so cold my fingertips turn purple, and times my skin feels so hot it feels like its burning. They are all horrible symptoms, but the burning physically hurts the most. For years it was only my feet, but lately its affecting my head. My entire face, neck, scalp and ears feel like they are on fire. And I never sweat during these periods. It drives me CRAZY. I feel like Joe Pesci when the blowtorch lit up his… read more

I get this too. Its worse for me at night but happens any time. This last year it has even spread to inside my mouth. the freezer is stocked up with ice lollies all the time now as they give a bit of relief for a short time anyway

Omg ...finally someone who understands. I too. And I hate hate it. I was shopping and had a flare. The cashier just stops and stares at me i turned purple red infront of her then normal. From my chest down both arms my face ears and neck. I was imbarrased. By it bad. But it is so painful onset that its hard to concentrate for me followed by an urge to push inside so deep that I wished labor would be better. It comes in waves and wow thank you I thought I was the only one who had this. .I have no remedy and no doctor has suggested as they thot i was crazy. My luck this symptom hasnt came whilst at the doctor. I feel so my skin pain during this I dont think I could rub anything on me tho. I wish not even a fan of air. To painful for me. And I also get my face tenderness to where breathing on Me sends me sideways. And if i had to guess the reason for the two i would think some type of a shingles reaction. As before this i would feel indie the same and rash. Now a deep itch no rash hoever the red fire skin comes. Hope this helps and let me knoe if u get a remedy. Wow i could go o. This forever. I say thank you but mean I wish we didnt do this . But glad I'm not alone. Oh it been going close to 10 years that its happened n progressively worse. Over the years and more often in winter.
