Hi.

I understand your concern .

Burning sensation /tingling and numbness are the symptoms of anxiety.

Psychological stress cqn lead to physical symptoms like you mentioned.

Need to relax and calm down.

Need proper psychological evaluation for stress and anxiety.

It can be treated with medicine like benzodiazapine and anxiolytic.
If you are my patient then I would like to treat you with etizolam and behaviour therapy.

Exercise and meditation can be useful.

Proper sleep and diet can help.

Stress free activity and work.

Consult psychiatrist and get help .

Thank you .
