MS symptoms

I went to a Nero. He looked at my MRI and noticed a pinched nerve in the neck. He also thinks I have carpal tunnel and scheduled a test. But he said the MRI didn't show any lesions so MS is unlikely. The wrist pain is from carpal tunnel. The stinging skin could be an allergy or eczema and the numbness is also part of carpal tunnel.
Does anyone have any burning stinging feeling in their skin that disappears after shower?
I can't put MS out of my mind until I find some explanations for all problems.
The doctor says the pinched nerve could cause any or all of my problems.

Hi Willy,
The idea of having MS gets planted in our brains and can be hard to put aside.  Like GG said, it would be best to work with the pinched nerve and see if the problem improves.

If you have any questions, we are here to help if possible.

be well,
Lulu

Hi, Willy, and welcome.  I am diagnosed, and yes, I get paresthesias and dysesthesias on a daily basis - not just after a shower.

Deal with your pinched nerve and your CTS.  If your burning/stinging continue, call your neurologist again.  

Good Luck,
