What Causes Burning Sensation In The Shoulder Muscles?

I am a dental hygienist and by the afternoon my shoulder muscle feels like it is burning. It started this Monday. As of November 2015, I have also been having problems with my wrist hurting and my fingers numb and at times the back of my hand is numb in the area of the fore finger towards the wrist. I have been checked for carpal tunnel and I was told it wasn t that. I have been to two orthopedic specialists and they don t know how to help me. I was sent to physical therapy that only gave temporary relief. I don t know what to do or what to try next.
