What Causes Persistent Burning Sensation In The Whole Body?
I have been having burning sensation through out my whole body( like my insides are on fire) I m not on any cholesterol meds, not a diabetic, not high blood pressure, blood work is good, had a MRI done and I still cant figure out why I m having this burning feeling through out my body.
Hi Thanks for posting on HCM Such feeling may be caused by many medical conditions.Some of these possible causes include: -Neuropathy -Ionic imbalances -Vitamin B12 deficiency/other metabolic disorders -Kidney/liver problems I will suggest you see the Doctor for examination and work-ups.You will need test like Full blood count, serum electrolytes, vitamin levels, liver and renal function tests.If these tests do not reveal the cause, the a neurologic evaluation will be advised. I will advise -you eat well and healthy -take enough fruits and vegetable -Enough fluids -B complex vitamins -You make take a steroidal anti-inflammatory like prednisolone for say 5 days. Hope my answer will help you Best regards
