Could be simple heat rash, or could be a circulation issue, or could be Bart....

I get burning feet with hot water, too, it started when I got RSD (probably because Lyme/coinfections made me more susceptible to getting the RSD...) and didn't go away when the pain of the RSD itself went into remission.

And now I think the RSD is trying to come back :( Both my feet are hurting and swollen... I need to go soak them in some anti-inflammatory herbal tea again...it seems to help.

And yes, my feet burn when I put my feet in the hot water to soak, even the tea...

Does your daughter usually have cold feet/hands? That's my problem - when I get into a hot shower or bath the parts of my body that are normally extremely cold practically go into shock with the hot water.

Might also just be that the skin in the foot area is so sensitive...Lyme tends to produce fibromyalgia-like symptoms...meaning increased sensitivity to pain/all sensation which might explain it?

I would second the idea of the shock from putting cold hands/feet into even warm water and it hurting, and the possibility of it being a symptom of a Bartonella infection. I hope that your daughter isn't experiencing the RSD that Razzle mentioned, a Bartonella infection would be a whole lot better!
