I periodically get deep pain in the bones of my feet, knee, or hips along with severe skin sensitivity. There is nothing on my skin but it feels like a severe sunburn. Sometimes I only have skin pain. It only happens in one place at a time. It lasts for a day or two. Sometimes the pain in the side of the knee or toes feels stiff or tight and causes me to limp. It s worse if I have been inactive then try to walk or get up from sitting. I have genital herpes. Could this be related somehow?
Your symptoms could be related to different possible causes like peripheral neuropathy or chronic inflammation. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your GP and performing some tests: - a nerve conduction study to exclude polineuropathy - complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation. Further tests may be needed to establish the right diagnosis and treatment options. Hope to have been helpful! Best wishes, Dr. Aida
