Nerve PainExcess pressure on the nerve can stem from muscle or joint problems like swelling or inflammation, causing nerve irritation and pain. Nerve pain can also occur without any actual physical problem from chemical changes in/around the nerve, hypersensitivity of pain receptors, or dysfunction of the brain. All of this can result from conditions such as:
- Sciatica - Neuropathy (diabetic, insidious, etc.) - Cancer - Shingles - Pinched nerves - Radiating pain from problems in the neck or back Some of the symptoms you may experience are: - Sensitivity to air, heat or cold, and/or touch - Numbness - Tingling or prickling - Burning sensation - Abnormal joint sensations - Muscle weakness or paralysis When treating nerve pain, it is vital to identify the root cause of the problem and not solely treat the symptoms. When treating nerve pain, we address all aspects of the problem, whether it's the muscle, nerve, or joint dysfunction. Healing time for nerves is complex, but in general the longer the problem is there, the more difficult it is to treat, so don't put it off any longer! |
