Cyclosporine and shower issues

Hi All. So my son is on Cyclosporine and about once a week simple cannot stand the shower water on him. He says it burns, I checked the water and it's not hot. It's happened too when doing dishes, he says his hands burn from the water. He's 15, and it isn't that he doesn't want to take a shower, he is very genuine that it hurts. Anybody have anything similar, or suggestions on how to google it?

I mentioned it to the doc last time, he doesn't seem to think its anything major, and while I agree I'm still curious about it.

Thanks!
