Cause of Legs Pain and Skin burning

[pauldhillon1]

Almost 5 years in the winter nights my lower legs start pain and burning skin. When I put on worm cloth and covered up my legs, that help me few minutes break but after 10/15 minutes it start again and my skin burning and itchy. When I take off my pant or pajama then I feel like cool down burning skin. But after 20 minutes my legs get very cold and pain and I have to put my pajama/Pants on. This situation last until early morning. If I take sleeping pills and stand up because pain, my brain falls sleep and I fell on the floor. It happens every single year in winter at nights. Is any help available? Please help me I am so miserable.

Thank you for answering, Tuck, As you said, It is same kind signs most people whome have/had vascular disorder. But I have done all tests and all came back normals. But, I
would like to be careful. I was thinking that may be was my home heat is the problem and it is showing possible connection. I will follow up after continue testing, Thank you all.

Hello Paul,

Have you been tested for PAD (peripheral artery disease)?  It is narrowing of the vessels that supply blood to our extremities?

There is also a condition called Raynaud's disease it too is a vascular disorder that affects blood flow to the extremities in cold weather or times of stress although it is different that PAD. Your symptoms sound similar to those of Raynaud's patients. There are several forms of the disease with varying levels of severity. I am just suggesting possibilities as I am certainly not a physician or an expert.

I suggest you see a good vascular physician. Possibly he/she can offer you some insight and answers. I am sorry you are having such a time of it. Please have a good clinical evaluation. You should not have to suffer the way you are now, my heart goes out to you.

Keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.

Take Care,
Tuck

You could have Fibro or even some nerve damage.  I have heard alot of people with fibromyalgia have these symptoms so it could be this is your problem. I would definitely go see your doctor and find out. Lidoderm patches work well for the burning. I use them on my shoulder blades and it helps alot for itching and burning. I do have fibro as well.
