Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query. I am not sure if you have spelled the name of the syndrome right. Could you please confirm if it is 'Klippel-Feil Syndrome'. Moreover, I would need you to specify where exactly is the burning sensation located. Is it the whole body or a specific region that is involved.
Patients with Klippel-Feil Syndrome may develop neurological complications due to associated spinal cord injury and this can lead to complications may include pain; abnormal sensations (paresthesia), such as tingling, prickling, or burning even though there might be no external sign like redness. That could perhaps explain the reason of your sister having the burning sensation.
