A member asked:

What are some possible reasons that my hands and feet get red during exercise?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Increased blood flow: Exercise will create increased blood flow to extremities which can give a red appearance of skin since many vessels close to skin are expanded with blood.

My rbc is at 5.9, hemoglobin is at 18 gm/dL, and hemotacrit is at 54%. I have burning pain, redness, itching through my feet, hands, extremities, and even in my face. Heat makes symptoms worse. Could these cbc numbers be the cause of my symptoms?
