Default "Super" Hypersensitive Skin

I have noticed that most of the symptoms who posted here would be burning, numbness, tingling and only a few with very hypersensitive skin.

I have burning (used to be severe but now is lessened), patchy numbness, painful feet, no tingling but I have super hypersensitive skin!!!! It is very hard for me to wear anything particularly in my legs and arms. Anything that touches my skin is painful... I like this weather because I dont have to wear thick clothes. Last winter was my first winter with PN, wearing the thick winter clothes was a challenge. Now, I am wearing shorts and sleeveless and this gives me a relief!

To those with similar sensation, what kind of materials you use for your pants? I could no longer use jeans. Even the cotton and fleece pajamas hurt. When I use long pants, it has to be loose to minimize the contact to my skin but even then, when it touches, just a loose fiber or thread in my clothing gives me pain.
