I have other hand symptoms, clawing, formication (the ants crawling thing), weakness, numbness, but not burning until now.
Thank you

Hi Susanne, Because CMT causes damage to sensory nerves fibers (axons) there can be burning sensations in the hands and the feet. Usually causes only mild sensations but sometimes causing pain.
