Burning Sensation
Besides pain, numbness and tingling, individuals with claudication may also experience a burning sensation in their legs or feet. The sensation may or may not cause pain, but a person is likely to experience discomfort.
The burning sensation may be related to nerve damage in the legs. Known as neuropathy, the burning feeling occurs as a result of damage to or dysfunction of one or more nerves. This may also result in numbness and tingling.
