What makes a burning sensation on the inner side of my leg near my knee cap?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Foot pronation: A very common cause of this type of pain is foot pronation. When the foot rolls in and the arch flattens it causes stress on the soft tissues on the inner knee area. An orthotic prescribed by a podiatrist should correct this problem. If this is not the problem have an evaluation by an orthopedic md.

Knee Pain: Your burning sensation and pain could be from irritation of nerve endings but most likely due to articular cartilage damage under your knee cap.
