Hello.
Burning sensation in the toes and fingertips is a sign of peripheral neuropathy. Is this problem recent?
Diabetes is a common cause of peripheral neuropathy. Excess of blood sugar interferes with signal transmission. Have you checked your blood sugar?
Another cause could be vitamin deficiency, especially vitamin B12. Please get a blood work done for these two conditions.
Regards

James, I have the same issues and much more do you have any other symptoms? You probably need a neuroligist.
