For the last week or so I've been having the sensation there is something poking me from inside my skin. Feels like that combined with a chemical burn that is starting to blister. Then usually the next day I will have a small pen top sized bruise in that area. They look like pimple sized bruises.

I'm new to this and feel like I don't know what's happening or what to expect. The last couple weeks have been bad. Before it was mostly swelling and joint pain. Now it's this bruising and burning and frostbite feeling. Color changes and temperature changes, pain with touch or light touch causing a feeling like I hit my funny bone. I hate this. I really just want it to go away.

I am likely to have a lot of questions as I trust you who've experienced this horrible thing more than a website that says all these maybes and could be statements. I'm really glad I have those forum to go to. Thank you all!

So yeah the bruising. What is happening?
