Erythromelalgia treatment and autoimmune
Autoimmune Diseases | Last Active: Apr 28, 2024 | Replies (7)Comment receiving replies
Erythromalalgia is a condition that causes burning and redness in the hands and feet. I become symptomatic when I exercise and when I sleep. Nighttime is the worst. I go to bed with cold feet and wake up a few hours later with burning red feet.
Has anyone else struggled with this condition?
Thank you.

Sorry to hear of your suffering. I haven't had erythromelalgia. But, I did have a brief bout of idiopathic peripheral neuropathy a few years ago that was quite distressing.
You don't mention any treatment(s) you may be trying. Are you getting professional care?
Again, sorry for your pain.
Thank you for your support. There are no remedies at this point. My doctor said taking aspirin can help. I’m on Eliquis so I can’t take aspirin.

Dear @piemonte
I need & use from my feet up thru the rest of my legs. If I use the wrong thing, my right foot is pupped up and is cold and a lost balance or less feeling on my right foot.
That’s a disease and keep my legs during the day like foot-leg closes. According to my wife gets worse, if I don’t keep these from my top legs to the bottom of my feet.
As I get older I need to help my legs/feet - daily. Physical exericinrg has been decades way before my brain-injury bicycle accident from 2012. I got a 3-bicycle thing and helps the strength of my inside muscle. But, I still need holding my legs-feet.
Thx,
