[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have burning pain on the right leg. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query, but in your case the symptoms are probably due to neuralgia parenthetical. The cause of neuralgia parenthetical is compression of the nerve that supplies sensation to the skin surface of your thigh. I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may order x-ray imaging, electromyography, nerve conduction study, nerve blockade with anesthesia. Doctor may prescribe corticosteroid injections, tricyclic antidepressants or gabapentin. For lose some weight and wear loose cloths. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
