I get this after too much booze. Like my skin and scalp will be sore to touch and I feel like I’ve been battered! Obviously my body’s way of saying too much!! Haven’t had it for a long time cos no of hardcore nights out.
I totally get this! Even puffy fingers and wrists! Puffy gave is the worst for me - it's so bad even my eyes look smaller that's if I've had a really bad food day! Like TruffleTrifle says, I think it's water retention due to the salt plus all the sugar causing inflammation. Xxpuffy face and body
You could be intolerant to a number of foods, doing an elimination diet would tell you.A friend of mine who’s a nutritionist said she’s never heard of anything like that and said it sounds like an intolerance but it happens with sugary foods/dairy/carbohydrates when I eat a lot of those food groups separately so don’t know which it could be
When I only have a few glasses of wine in the evening and don’t over do it I don’t have any reaction, it’s literally just the next day when I’m grazing throughout the day. I wondered if it’s water retention? Insulin spiking ? Stomach inflammation?
Who knows
Yep! The only way I can describe it is like my body feels sunburnt?This is a weird one but does anyone get a large appetite and graze all day (usually on a hangover) and get terrible sore skin as though your whole body is bruised (painful to put even a bra on and to touch) feeling foggy and hazey in the head, puffy face and body, bad digestion/gas etc that lasts anytime up to at least 24 hours?
I know one other person who gets this and I’ve read others get it online but no one knows why?
I’ve had to call in sick to work some days it’s been so bad! Can’t even function or use my brain properly, it’s so oddI used to be a binge/purge eater in my younger days and I always used to get the sore skin after I had pigged out. I'm skinny and assumed my skin was tender because it had been stretched from overeating. It made me feel ashamed at my pigging out, and was the trigger for the purge cycle beginning
