Brief Answer: Pregabalin and ropinirole would help. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your symptoms. These symptoms are suggestive of a diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy (burning feet) and restless legs syndrome (jerking of legs). They would respond to treatment with pregabalin capsules (burning feet) and ropinirole tablets (leg jerking). I hope my answer helps.
