it appears to be neurological problem. consult neurologist for examination and advise on treatment. burning sensation is irritation of nerve ending. have to test for fine and rough pricking sensation. can also take conduction test and thermal sensation. it can be originating from CNS and communicating to distal end through nerve route.
