16-year-old with sudden onset of burning, itching, bright red hands and feet that sometimes tingle. what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Multiple answers: This could be due to a medication the child is taking; overexposure to the sun; an allergic reaction to food as this is some form of allergic reaction with a vascular-blood vessel condition. Please see your pediatrician for the exact reason.
