Hi.
As per your case history of burning skin, my treatment advice is -
1. Take good nutritious diet full of green leafy vegetables and milk.
2. Apply a soothing lotion like calamine lotion on affected region twice daily.
3. Take a vitamin b12 supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are oral gabapentin, injectable vitamin b12 given only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
