I have been having burning in the tips of my thumbs, a crawling and tickling sensation all over my body, what could this possibly be. please help me.

Tingling and burning: Burning and tingling, or feelings of pins and needles can be due to problems in the nerves, but can also be a local problem in the skin. When it is in a very local region, often due to an entrapment of a particular nerve. When diffuse, all over the body, tends to be more from a systemic problem as can be seen in diabetes, vitamin deficiencies (d and b12), electrolytes, medication side effects.
