Symptoms, causes, and how Clearway specialists diagnose and treat nerve pain.
Overview
What is Nerve Pain?
Nerve pain (neuropathic pain) feels different from other pain - burning, shooting, or electric - because it comes from the nerves themselves. It requires a different treatment approach than muscle or joint pain.
Common symptoms
Burning, shooting, or stabbing pain
Numbness and tingling
Pain from light touch (allodynia)
Electric-shock sensations
What causes it
Nerve injury or compression
Diabetes and other medical conditions
Shingles, surgery, or chemotherapy effects
