No for all your questions. No preventive treatment available for it. You can not remove them individually, so for burning sensation you require treatment. Pl consult a neurosurgeon|physician. As of now difficult to indentify specific gene. So detecting while in mothers womb is not possible. statistics say this condition not compulsory to b inherited by the children
