What Cause Skin Become Red And Hot From Face To Feet?
All of a sudden my skin from face to feet got hot and red. My hands turned white and the circulation in my hands did not seem right. I got the chills and became very cold and shaky. I took a shower because I thought maybe it was from a body lotion but I have been using it for several weeks. It is called gold bond. This happened on Sunday and again just an hour ago. I have no idea what is going on

Hi,
It may be pyrexia with skin rash. It may be due to viral infection most probably. Consult the physician immediately and get diagnosed by physical examination and investigations. If needed, hospital admission may be done for management and regular observation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
