Hi,

Burning sensations in palms and soles are seen with thyroid diseases, diabetes, vitamin B12 deficiency etc.

So take him to the hospital and get done blood reports like a thyroid function test, sugar estimation and vitamin B12 levels.

Treatment will be based on diagnosis. Don't worry, he will be alright with all these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar,
