HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If there was no improvement with the medication (the antibiotics, anti fungal) and no specific infection was found, you may want to consider whether the burning is neurological in nature.
Sensations is due to nerve function and abnormal function of the nerves can cause abnormal sensations such as burning.
It can be temporary or permanent and there are different possible causes.
Some of the more common causes such as: (1) diabetes
(2)trauma to the nerves in the area or in the lower back
(3)liver or kidney disease
(4)infection such as shingles
(5)side effect of medication
(6)thyroid disease
(7)low vitamin b12 or folate
If the symptoms continue, then you should consider seeing a neurologist for assessment.
I hope this helps
