Genetics expert: I would think genetics expert or pain specialist would be your best bet. Mitchell’s disease is caused by intermittent blocked blood vessels which can cause flushing and pain in the hands, feet, & face-most common legs and feet. The burning pain can be triggered by heat, long standing, exertion, insomnia, alcohol, coffee, & stress. Even the heat from shoes and socks have been known to cause attacks.
