Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
It appears that you have been investigated and treated for common cause, but you have not got relieved about your numbness and burning sensation in fingers.
It could be due to compression of nerves in the cervical region called as 'compressive neuropathy' occurring due to cervical spondylosis.

Kindly get X-ray of cervical region in AP and Lateral view. Visit with the report to an Orthopedician for opinion and management.

f it is due to cervical spondylosis causing such symptoms, you need to wear cervical collar along with taking prescribed medications and physiotherapy exercises to get better.

Wish you all the best.
