My thighs feel hot like they are burning and they are hot to the touch.

Does anyone else have these symptoms? I can have cold hands, feet and nose but my thighs feel like they are on fire. My hips have been awful for so long. Does anyone else feel a flare this way?

My knees and thighs stay hot a lot. It was one of the first indications that something wasn't quite right.

I have a hot knee from my RA. It is why I had a knee replacement. Unfortunately, after my replacement and infection and 4 surgeries in 6 months, it is still hot. Of course they say it will
stop the heat in 99% of cases. I have been the fortunate 1% in many aspects of my RA and it is not too fun!
