That burning feeling is the nerves starting to reconnect. It can last a couple weeks but does get easier. Massaging helps.
I had a br 2/11. I referred to the "itchy-burnies" which bothered me mostly at bedtime. What helped was pain reliever. Then when I was allowed to I used a moisturizing cream with some vitamin E which I added. A gentle massage also gave some temp relief & helped with the overall swelling. My surgeon recommended using a cream but said he thought that it was the actual massaging which helped the healing process.
It gets better. I rarely have any problems now. There still is some swelling & I get mildly sharp, shooting pains which only last a second or two. They keep getting rarer. As another said, it's a good sign as the nerves are regenerating.
I really didn't start feeling decent until week 6.
