Is Sun Burn On Back And Neck Due To Previous Drug Use?
My neck and lower back feels sun burnt real bad, I have no rash or redness yet it s been like this for about 3 days now and getting worse. Just getting concearned. Im a recovering addict and have been clean for 49 days now, I m afraid I might of damage my nerves with all the pain pills, that I have ingested. Could it be something simple or related to my drug use??

Hi,
I can understand your concern for burning sensation on lower back and neck. You had addiction and now you are withdrawing the addiction. You ad also taken pills for pain.
There is nothing serious. Take it easy. I think, it may be the part of withdrawal syndrome. You may take anxiolytic like fluoxetine 10mg daily till you feel better.
I hope this would help you.
Thanks.
