Scleroderma Information » Scleroderma » Excrutiating Pain

Question:

Is it typical for an individual with scleroderma to experience excruciating pain when slightly touched on the shoulder?

Response:

I do not experience excruciating pain, but then pain is an individal thing.  Some have more tolerance than others. I find it painful when someone touches  or grabs my arms or even taps me to get  my attention. This has been a problem since before I was diagnosed, but was  already experiencing SD symptoms. I just tell people it is painful and explain why. They don’t always understand,  but it does solve the problem.
