Why is my skin tender to the touch?

Answer by  thattractorguy (2970)

If you are retaining any water, it is possible for you to have sensitive skin. For example, if you have swollen feet or ankles after being on them all day, they can be tender. If your skin is sun burned to any extent, it will be tender. Also, windy weather can cause your skin to become sensitive.

You skin is probably irritated by something you have been in contact with recently or there is some kind of hormone fluctuation.
