What Are the Causes of Burning Leg Pain?
Burning leg pain may be caused by nerve-related conditions, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, or AAOS. However, other factors, such as environmental exposure, autoimmune conditions and certain blood vessel disorders may also cause the sensation of burning in one or both lower extremities. Burning leg pain may be mild, moderate or severe, depending on the cause of the pain and the tissues affected.
