Burning Feet 🔥🦶🏽

Does anyone every experience burning hot feet when they lay down or try to sleep? Lately I’ve been having to sleep with an ice pack at my feet most nights.

Members widely related to the experience of burning hot feet at night, sharing that they manage the discomfort by sleeping with fans blowing on their feet, using ice packs, keeping feet outside the covers, or applying topical products like BioFreeze. Several members identified potential underlying causes, including neuropathy from Sjögren's syndrome, Raynaud's syndrome, erythromelalgia, and RA flares that can make the entire body feel sunburned. A recurring theme was the frustration of getting bounced between specialists without clear answers, alongside relief in discovering simple cooling strategies that provide meaningful nighttime comfort.

occasionally hands and feet. But lately I've been eating a lot of fruits and vegetables and very little meat and haven't had the red palms and soles of feet. I'm not sure it diet is the answer for everyone but it does seem to help me.

Yes I suffer from burning feet most nights, and I sleep with them out of the bed. When my RA flares up my whole body feels like it's on fire, my skin feels like I've been sun burned.

I have experienced buring feet and also when I lie down they feel like they have a tight shiel over them. It’s hard to explain but sometimes they don’t feel like they belong to me

I do in both hands and feet, but lately on the lower level of my face, chin up to right under my nose!
