What is the definition or description of: burning sensation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Like fire: A burning sensation can be descriptive of nerve pain, some variations of migraine, and even central brain problems after a stroke. Have heard this said associated with phantom limb syndrome, reflex sympatheric dystrophy, and trigeminal neuralgia. Other patients might say sharp or needle like.
