Can Palmar Dupuytrens Cause Skin Burning?

I had an excision left palmar dupuytrens disease + release flexor sheath left ring finger 4 days ago. 2 days later I experienced very cold feelings inside the body whilst burning on the skin, and then noticed a blotchy rash appearing first on legs and now progressing through the whole body with a burning prickly feeling. Should I be concerned? Pauline

Hi,

It could be an allergic reaction to the medicines you have been given.
I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet Chlorpheniramine maleate and apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected area.
If it doesn’t improve in 5 days consult a doctor and get it evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
