CHRONIC PAIN
Rewiring the nervous
IF YOU EXPERIENCE
chronic
pain with symptoms of burning or
electric sensations in your body, you
might have seen several doctors and
been told there is nothing that can be
done to help the pain.
That might no longer be true.
Peripheral nerve surgery might be
the procedure that finally restores you
to health and returns you to a more
active and pain-free life.
The term
peripheral nerve
refers to
any nerves in the body outside of the
spinal cord or brain.
Neuropathic pain, commonly
known as nerve pain, is typically
tied to problems with the nerve. It
can cause serious physical problems,
including amputations in severe
cases. Patients with nerve problems
often have a loss of sensation along
with pain that can be intense and
debilitating. Peripheral neuropathy
is highly prevalent among patients
with diabetes.
