My skin hurts on my thighs and calves. It hurts to the point that I don't want to put any clothing on it. Has anyone ever heard of this before? It feels like when you have the flu. Of course, my hips and feet are killing me, as well- but that is pretty common for me these days.

Hi Glory,

Oh, girl, that is sooooo common!! A lot of us have skin sensitivity that goes beyond being reasonable! For me, it's when my fibromyalgia is flaring. I know that a lupus flare can cause this too. It's really common with fibro though.

Hi Glory, I get that same sensation too, it's usually on the left side of my face and head.... very annoying. Be sure to mention it to your doctor.
