Please have your doctors rule out Stephen's Johnson, this is can actually cause you to burn from the inside out & put you in a burn center if left to long. I had this, due to a reaction to antibiotics, on day 4. Luckily it was diagnosed by PCP & confirmed by the Dermatologist the same day. Benadryl & cooling lotion took care of mine.
Please let us know how you are doing.
