Ok. I've seen the many posts about sensitive skin and it hurting to touch or even clothes rubbing on it. I'm not sure if this is weird or not...
But, just my middle finger is sensitive to touch. The skin feels like it's raw or somewhat burning. Only one finger. Is this normal?

I have the same thing. Sometimes it just starts feeling like a hang nail, sore to touch and then my skin actually starts peeling and gets all raw. It only happens on my middle finger but last month it cleared up and it started on my thumb.

It is called raynaulds when its in your finger or fingers. Be careful about putting that hand in the cold. Ie...freezers cold water. It makes it worse. Keep hands warm in the winter. Gabapentin will help.
