Galaxy watch 5 burned my wrist

[Members_giqu0Pl]

This has just happened. Suddenly had an itchy/hot sensation from underneath my Galaxy watch 5. Only had it for 5 days.

Still waiting for some sort of action after I sent the IM as requested.

Can someone tell me what the answer is, obviously from someone who also had the same issue?

I also have a wrist burn.  It made an indention in my wrist of the watch and it has a pain all the way up to my elbow.

Your watch is burning my wrist too? Do you have a defect batch or something? Is there a class action lawsuit going on?

The paint on the back of the watch came off and the sensor is burning the wrist, even if health monitor is turned off.  After looking on the internet there are several same issue but, they have noticed white spots on the bezel.
