Arthritis :: Burning Sensation In Both Palms - More Painful At Night
Nov 9, 2015
I’m a 49 year old male in good health --- not diabetic and clean blood work including negative for RA Factor, very low CRP and Sed Rate. Rest of bloodwork (CBC) all looks normal as well.
I’ve been experiencing a pain in both of my palms (more like a burning sensation) that comes and goes during the day but is generally more painful at night. The pain is located below my thumbs in the fleshy area of the palm called the Abductor Pollicis Brevis area. (I’ve obviously been researching this too much to know all these terms!!)
I’m assuming I must have Osteoarthritis as I have Herberden Nodes on the DIP joints of both little fingers. I also feel stiffness in the PIP joints of the middle fingers of both hands.
I was concerned this might be rheumatoid arthritis but with my blood work all being normal and I feel great I think it’s likely something else.
What could be causing this pain in what looks to be the Thenar Eminence area of my palms. Could this be due to Osteoarthritis or I’ve read about something called Tenosyvitis?

About 2 years ago i got a slight sore throat at one side hot flashes( my temp was normal as i checked) and burning sensation on my palms it last about 3 weeks and went away after these symptoms , i got shortness of breath for one day and dr said i have high blood pressure.
Now my problem : after this happening i catch same symptoms ( slight sore throat - burning sensation in palms and hot flashes) like clockwork each month or every 2 months that last less than 1 a week . and these 3 symptoms are always together) i know it's like the common cold or flu but it is not coz when i catch a cold i have different feelings.
idk what's wrong with me ? and what's that a new virus or bacteria , neurological involvement?

I am a 21 year old female in the UK, and I have been suffering with a painful burning sensation which I believe to be coming from my urethra since September 2014. The pain comes and goes throughout the day, and it will be at its most intense after having urinated, and after sex. At its worst I struggle to walk. The need to urinate has increased but there is no difficulty in going, though I do now most often have two streams when urinating which sometimes will stop and start. On multiple occasions there has also been thick blood in my urine too.
No UTIs have ever shown up on the paper dip test at my local GPs, though I have had UTIs in the past. I have tested negative to all STDs. I have had ultrasound scans which have shown nothing abnormal. I have had numerous internal examinations by doctors and one by a Gynaecologist, all have said everything looks normal and healthy.
My GP has had me try at least 6 different types of antibiotics but none have had any effect on me, except for Cephalexin which I took once a day for 28 days, the pain felt lifted and sex was possible again, but 3-4 days after having finished my course I was back to how I was before them.
I drink plenty of fluids (including cranberry juice) and eat healthy, I don't drink alcohol, smoke, or take drugs. All pain killers have very little effect on the pain, only a hot water bottle sat between my thighs brings any relief. Taking cranberry capsules, and/or cystitis relief sachets has had no effect.
I am about ready to give up on my local GP, its doctors and the NHS, no matter how many appointments I make and attend no progress is ever made, no tests are ever taken and my request to be referred to a Urologist has been repeatedly turned down, I am only ever told to drink more water and to try a new antibiotic, which I pay for each time, no one seems willing to search and to find out what is causing the pain. Affording to go private is a problem for me though, and so I just hope there is someone out there who can relate to me and give me guidance/knowledge on what to do.
This pain is now negatively affecting all aspects of my life.

I'm 34 year old female and recently I started to suffer from some very strange symptoms.
I recently have been waking up with really bad itchy palms and feet soles. I don’t know what could cause this and didn’t think that it could be something serious. But I was surprised when the symptoms started showing almost every day.
My both palms started itching, burning and turning beet red in the middle of the night last night again. I have tried using some usual hand creams but it didn’t help.
What could cause this and what could I do about it?

so this has been going on since I was about 13 till now at 17, my ANA goes up and down, I go from normal range and the highest I've gotten was 1/640.
At the moment I'm at 1/360, my symptoms include hot flashes, cold flashes, nausea, cramps, headaches, dizziness, weakness, shaking, knee pain, and gas. I get these episodes where I feel so weak, dizzy, hungery, and shaky that can last a few minutes to days. All my tests came back normal besides connective tissue disease with high ANA and it was speckled, and low vitamin d.

My right knee & on the right side in the soft part feels numb & if I get it against anything or kneel on the floor on my knee it feels like I put my knee on something sharp or it can feel like I put it on a nails & it can really hurt, I can rub my knee I can touch my knee firmly, even smack it & it does not bother it, it only shows these symptoms when I get against something or kneel down on it, its weird but its me so it would be.lol.. I thought maybe a form of neuritis but I don't know, I did nothing to my knee to cause this...Sometimes if I get against something in a certain way I feel the sensation of something rolling inside I want to say like a vein maybe.. If I run my fingers over the spot it feels numb..

Can anyone help me. I have been getting a burning sensation, followed but heart racing, hot flashes and the feeling of having to vomit or burp. Is this anxiety? I have been under tons of stress...

From time to time I feel this burning sensation in breasts (both). Feels like tingling and burning sensation, but doesn’t hurt or anything. I am examining my breast regular and can’t seem to find anything. Does tingling mean anything?

Ever since I was a little kid i've gotten those really intense stomach aches/cramps whenever i'm doing something special. When I was a kid I got them every single morning before school, I used to sit on the floor and almost cry because it hurt so badly but they always passed as soon as I got there. Nowadays I don't get them every time i'm going to school but every time i'm doing something special like going on a date with my boyfriend or travelling somewhere! I get so nauseous, I run to the bathroom several times and I can't eat for the entire day. It has been so bad I was on a date once and I couldn't eat, I had to force myself to and later run to the bathroom where I nearly threw up. I don't get nervous, at least I don't feel nervous.. but maybe that's it? I just think it's weird because I can be super excited about something but those stomach pains ruin everything..
Also lately i've had this weird burning sensation in my stomach, it gets worse when I eat spicy foods or drink coffee or anything else with lots of caffeine like energy drinks. I've never been sensitive to either before in my life. I've been a coffee drinker since age 5. Believe it or not..
But those burning stomach pains they have been there for maybe 2 or 3 months now.. everyday more or less. It's getting really annoying.
Any ideas what either of those things could be? Do I have a sensitive belly or something and how do I treat that?

About 10 months ago, my ring fingers started getting bumps/nodules on the knuckles closest to my hand. Around the same time I noticed that bending my ring fingers was pretty uncomfortable, and soon it progressed into much more than what I'd consider to be mild discomfort. Basically, if my fingers bend too far on accident, it is some of the most excruciating pain I have ever had. It's this splintering, splitting pain followed by what feels like a strain/sprain. It's the one symptom that has not gone dormant and as of this week, it's getting worse.
I'm becoming much more limited as to how far I can close my hand, mainly because with the ring finger, it's not like you can just keep it straightened like you can with the rest of the fingers if you pick something up or grab onto something- it just doesn't move that way.
Anyway, out of the 3 Rheumatologists I've seen, none of them have been helpful. I told one of them how much it hurt and that I couldn't even believe how much pain it was capable of causing, and she took my hand and bent that finger closed, or at least as closed as it would go. Needless to say, I let out a small yipe and yanked my hand away. She looked at me like I was crazy or overreacting. Ha, I wish I was. Ugh. I wanted to slap her...
So, since none of the doctors have any idea what to tell me, which is very frustrating, and now it's getting worse, I thought I'd ask you guys- have any of you had this happen? Do you know if I should be trying to bend it as far as it goes it or if that does further harm? [It sure as hell doesn't FEEL like it would be helping, haha...] Do you know what exactly causes this? Tendon damage? Other damage?
I'd ask if there was any way to relieve the pain, but I'm guessing that's a big fat "no." Aspirin and Ibuprofen don't help much. Is there some kind of surgery that I should be thinking about in the future? I know you guys aren't doctors, but the ones I've been to are giving me a complete run around. One of them even told me that maybe everything would just go away. Ha, yeah....a list of 25+ ongoing symptoms will instantly vanish.
Okay, well thanks so much for any input you guys have. I'm 28 and this is all kind of hard to swallow, especially since I work with my hands a lot.

A few weeks ago I had sex with my girlfriend of 3 1/2 years. About half an hour after, I started to experience a burning sensation in my urethra in my perineal area. I took some ibuprofen and a hot bath and the pain subsided after about an hour. We had sex again over the next few weeks with no more issues. However we had sex the other day and the same result. A mild burn in my urethra. I thought that it might be the fact that I drink a lot of soda (bad for you I know) so I have started drinking strictly water the past few days in hopes that it would go away. It hasn't. I went to the doctor and they said it was probably a UTI and so they prescribed me ciprofloxacin. I just started taking it today and the pain has been off and on for about five days. I have no other side effects other than a burning in my urethra. It doesn't hurt to urinate, no discharge, etc.

I noticed yesterday that I had a stinging, burning sensation when my penis brushed against my boxers. Ouch!! When I checked it out the entire foreskin was red, inflamed and very sensitive. Not only that, but the glans is also red and sensitive to touch. I have a visible band around the head where the foreskin covers. Any advice fellas? Any OTC medications that work? I did google it and some say Lotrimin, I'm just a little cautious when it comes to my member. Any advice? Also, what say you? Do we soap or not? (BTW sorry if this posted twice.)

In my feminine area I have a very bad burning itching sensation that also feels like I have open sores in that area. When I am sitting down it is not as bad but when I am standing and walking around I want to die it hurts so bad. I am a waitress and it makes my life a living hell when ever I work that I have called in sick many times because it gets so bad. I have tried many creams, soaps and even just used water while I clean this area and they all make it worse. I have been to the doctors to be tested for UTI, bladder and yeast infections and all came back negative. My doctors wants to test for STD but I have never in my life had any kind of sexual intercourse.

I had the mirena put in 3 months ago. Ever since I have had extremely tender breast and a very low sex drive I know that these are a few of the side affects but what I am even more concerned about is the extreme burning sensation I feel on my vulva. I have gone in many times already. Been check for STD, yeast, and bacterial infection. All came back negative. I have noticed whenever I have extremely bad cramps from the birth control is when I start feeling the burning sensation. I never felt this until I got the birth control in. Is this common? Or am I the only one who feels this extreme burning sensation when I start cramping? I plan to have it removed Tuesday I can't take this anymore.

I slept with a girl 5 days ago and for the last couple of days I've noticed a tingle/ mild burning sensation in my penis tip......I have felt this sensation before sometimes after masturbation but it tends to go after a bit....could this be a STI? Does anyone else experience a similar thing?
I've read a couple of things that say it could be down to the nerves in the penis tip, could that be true?
To be on the safe side I am going to get a STI check up, I am thinking of going the end of next week which would make it about 11 days after my sexual encounter, would this be long enough after the event to show things like chlamydia?

i have had this problem for well over a year now after i had a one night stand with a girl. a couple of days after intercourse i noticed a thick cloudy yellowish discharge after urination. i would urinate and pull my pants up thinking i was done then i would feel irritation inside my penis like i had to go again but it even feels like something thick coming through. it doesn't happen every single time but i noticed my urine starting to look very cloudy at times as well. i have a slight burning sensation while i urinate. occasionally after the thick discharge comes out my testicles start to hurt for a while as well but this doesn't happen all the time. i have been back and forth to the doctors, first had a one off dose for chlamydia but no tests were taken and this didn't clear up the problem. i went back and had a urine test done and got given further treatment for chlamydia even though the tests came back negative for both chlamydia and gonorrhea. i didn't finish the second treatment for chlamydia but the symptoms still persisted. i went back once again and got tested for hiv, chlamydia and gonorrhea once again through a swab test and another urine test, all tests came back negative once again but my doctor decided to give me a shot to treat gonorrhea, (cant remember the name of it), which is supposed to kill all bacteria for that disease. that was the last i had been tested and treated for any STD but the symptoms still persist. i was fairly confident that it was either chlamydia or gonorrhea but with all tests coming back negative and no treatment helping, i am starting to worry that this will never be sorted and i will never be cured. i have a partner but i am too scared to even have sex with protection, this is how much it is affecting me.

I'm a 16 year old female and I have been struggling lately. I am having problems speaking because I stutter and can't remember words. This is very unusual for me. I have a burning sensation on the right side of my head. It comes and goes. It normally starts as a head ache and then into the burning. I already have blood in my stool(doctors couldn't find the source) and don't know what is going on. Any ideas?

I was in a local park, and had to urinate badly. I stepped behind a tree, and took my penis out through my zipper(though not all the way) and started to urinate, but clearly my penis was constricted by my underwear as I could not urinate. I adjusted, and then was able to 'finish'. Later, when I got home, I noted spots of blood in my underwear. I urinated later, and though there was no blood in my urine, I have a SLIGHT burning sensation around the tip of my penis. Did I break a blood vessel ?

I had problem with tight foreskin and on doc's advice have had a circumcision. Just got my dressing off this morning and feeling quite painful (burning feeling). Painkillers are helping, but tip of penis is very sensitive. Also noticed a large blister on penis head. My penis is well below average size, should I be worried about this blister kind of thing?
