No Sleep For Over 54 Hours, Been Taking Adderall And Energy Drinks, Have Redness Over Knuckles. Reason?
i have not slept in over 54 hours due to finals this whole week and i have taken very many energy drinks and a few adderall , which i am prescribed, over a 3 day span though but my hands, especially around the knuckles, have turned pretty red. Anyone know what this means? I don t really think it can be anything too bad but i have never seen this before. Any answers please?

This can be because of combination of sleeplessness and adderal. Does not look too serious.
Taking rest, after stress is over, it is expected that it should go away
If it persist for more then 2 weeks , then consult a dermatologist / rheumatologist
