Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.

"Burning" type of pain is typical of a NERVE IRRITATION.

In your case, I suspect C5-C6 radiculopathy. This means that a cervical disc at C5-C6 level might be compressing the left nerve root causing the symptoms.

I suggest you to undergo MRI scan of the cervical spine which diagnoses the condition.

Consult an orthopedic surgeon and follow his advice.

Hope this information is helpful. Good day
