What Causes Burning Sensation In The Feet?
I was at a store. I got a burning feeling in my feet. Then the feeling traveled up my legs and into my hips. It took a few minutes, then dissipated. No numbness or weakness. I m female, 67. Kind of like a hot flash, but just legs. Never had it before.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to deficiency of vitamins like vitamin B6 and B12. in that case taking supplements of these will be helpful. High cholesterol levels also give such symptoms so better to do a lipid profile test also. If no improvement then a physical examination by your general practitioner is well appreciated.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
