Causes of Burning Feet and Numb Toes Due to Neuropathy. Diabetes is the leading cause of these symptoms in the United States. One out of four people with diabetes are undiagnosed and burning or tingling toes may be the first symptom they notice. Alcohol abuse is another leading cause of leg neuropathy.
Lee Sanders, DPM, responds: A painfully hot or burning sensation in the feet, especially in middle-aged and older people, could be caused by small fiber neuropathy.
