Constant burning in limbs distally obviously indicating underlying small fiber neuropathy...now if u match it with some autoimmune disorder like lichen planus, I can tell u that autoimmune causes of small fiber neuropathy are not that rare...n u have to evaluate... obviously if it's autoimmune, there is high chance of response to medications...
