What can cause the burning sensation in my fractured foot?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Movement or nerve : If the fracture site is not stable and fragments are moving burning may be felt. Sometimes after an injury when nerves are healing you may get burning but more commonly this produces sudden sharp shooting/sticking pain.

Pressure: On nerve from bandage too tight or from foot swelling.
