Causes For Strong Burning Sensation In The Palms Of Both Hands
I have a strong burning sensation in the palms of both of my hands, worse on the right. I just want to hold ice it burns so deeply. I have taken 100mg Clomid this month, but I am on day 20 of my cycle now so it has been awhile. What could be causing this?

Hi
Such a strong burning sensation over the palms can indicate an allergic reaction.
It is possible that you might have been in contact with something that acted as a potential irritant.
Any kind of exposure to chemicals or irritants like oils, things like dettol or savlon, any new hand wash or cream could be a potential irritant.
You should try and recall any such exposure prior to development of the skin burning. Topical application of any mild topical steroid cream like cortisone over the affected areas will help you.
