Recently I have been getting a red patch of skin on my left hand that burns. I usually notice a burning sensation, look down and there is a red patch of skin on my hand out of nowhere. It doesn’t happen in the same place but around the area on top of my hand. I have also experience it as a red line round my ring finger on my right hand.

As far as I know I am no allergic to anything. It doesn’t itch, just burns a bit then disappears within half an hour. It is no raised or bumpy, just smooth. Not sunburn as it wasn’t in the sun.

I am really concerned I have lupus at the moment and am thinking this could be yet another symptom of a flare. Every day I wake up and I have a new symptom, I google it and lupus always pops up. I just want it to stop :( has anyone else had something like this?
