Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Burning sensation in hands and feet usually occurs due to vitamin B12 deficiency, however, vitamin B12 deficiency cannot exist for years all together. I suggest you to get vitamin B12 and folic acid levels checked. In case the levels are normal then you need to consult a neurologist else vitamin B12 and folic acid supplements.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
