Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Burning Sensation On The Skin While Taking Heart Medication?
My husband at night in bed often feels like his skin is on fire . He doesn t feel hot to me. He had triple bypass over 4 years ago and is on the typical medications that go with that condition. He has allergies. This has been going on for over a year now. We bought an old-fashioned mattress, no foam, but that hasn t helped. Some nights he is fine. Most nights are a real struggle.
It sounds like that your husband is having side effect of certain heart medication to be taken at night time causing issue with his homeostasis of the thermal regulation and sweat gland functioning. Kindly consult his cardiologist for discussing this issue and get best guidelines accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
