For about 2 years now, most of the time when i eat heavily seasoned (or mildly seasoned)chicken orTurkey, the skin on my hands and feet burns. its like a mild itchy and burnin sensation. at first i didnt know what it came from but i quickly narrowed it down to chicken or turkey. pork or beef dosent bother me. or is it the seasoning. am i allergic to something in it?

It sounds like an allergy. depending what seasoning is being used. I suspect MSG (accent).

It might not be the seasoning. Do you have a problem with hot dogs, bologna, or lunchmeat? I am allergic to chicken and turkey, but the symptoms are different. I cannot eat it hidden in lunchmeat or vienna sausage. Try a piece of plain chicken breast with no seasoning. If it does not bother you, it is probably not the meat.

It most likley is an alergy. Or possibly the way it is cooked effects the meat in some way and that's what your body could be alergic to. You are proboly, 98% percent alergic to it. Consult a doctor with your detailed syptoms.... he can provide you with a shot which can reduce the alergic reaction or can totally whipe the allergy away. You should definetly go to the doctor. Good luck :)
