A member asked:

What causes a burning sensation up and down the left hand?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Matthew Kozminski answered

As I have said: In other posts, I am quick to blame these symptoms on carpal tunnel syndrome. The best way to know is to see your doctor and start with a work up.

Dr Machanic and another doctor agreed
