Neuralgia can cause sharp, burning, or electric pain that follows the path of an irritated or damaged nerve. BioHealth Pain Management provides personalized treatment to reduce nerve pain and help patients return to their daily activities.

What Is Neuralgia?

Neuralgia is pain caused by irritation, compression, or damage to a nerve. Symptoms may develop suddenly or become chronic, depending on the affected nerve and underlying cause.
Types of neuralgia include:

• Occipital neuralgia: Pain beginning near the neck or back of the head
• Intercostal neuralgia: Pain along the ribs, chest, or upper abdomen
• Trigeminal neuralgia: Sudden, severe facial pain
• Postherpetic neuralgia: Persistent nerve pain following shingles

Common symptoms include burning, stabbing, shooting, or electric pain, tingling, numbness, and sensitivity to touch.
