Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The burning pain and the stinging sensation is likely to be due to paresthesias. This can happen due to an electrolyte imbalance, thyroid disorder, vitamin B 12 deficiency, diabetes, etc. Simple blood test will help in detecting the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
