Error: This is required. Error: Not a valid value. Erythromelalgia is a rare skin condition that causes a burning pain, heat and red skin, usually on the hands or feet.

Flare-ups often begin with a mild itch. The itch gradually changes to burning pain. The painful area becomes red, swollen, warm and sometimes sore to touch.
Life Skills
Arthritis :Chronic pain, swelling, and stiffness in your joints often means that you have arthritis. This disease can be particularly troublesome when it affects your hand, fingers, or wrist, as it can limit your ability to do the things you do on a daily basis. Baseball Mallet Finger : This injury to the outermost joint of the finger is very common among baseball and basketball players. Pain, swelling, and trouble extending the finger are all symptoms of this injury to the tendon. Boutonniere Deformity : An injury to the tendons that straighten the middle joint of your finger can make you finger bend—and make it impossible to straighten. This is usually the result of a blow to the hand or an accident. Boxer's Knuckle : A direct blow to the knuckle—usually at the base of the middle finger—can cause a tear in the tendon that straightens the finger. The knuckle becomes weak and painful. The injury gets its name from its frequency among boxers and martial arts fighters.
