Neuropathic Pain Management

Neuropathic pain management focuses on treating pain caused by nerve damage or dysfunction, often resulting from conditions like diabetes, injury, or shingles. Treatment typically includes medications that target nerve pain, such as antidepressants or anticonvulsants. Physical therapy, nerve blocks, and sometimes psychological support can also help. Lifestyle changes, like exercise and stress reduction, play a role in managing symptoms. The goal is to reduce pain and improve quality of life through a combination of approaches tailored to each individual's needs.
