Worst of all the swelling itself is painful acid burning like painful. My skin is so tight I feel like it might burst. It cant can it?

Gabapentin can cause peripheral edema. It does in me. So, yes, it can be causing the swelling.
Tonight after gabapentin last couple of days. It's usually not this bad. No other reason for it. It always happens when I take it.
