I am having alot of nerve pain and am scheduled to see a neroligist soon but wanted some answers now. I think I have Periperal Neuropathy from what i have looked up and I was wondering if there is some kind of decompression surgery they can do on your back to get the pain to stop? I have tried muscle relaxers and I am on a high dose of gabapentin and it is not working.
Hi I am Chat Doctor. .  In my opinion I think you may ask your physician for steroid injections which may be helpful prior to any further intervention , try chiropractor sessions, B12 vitamin supplementation, hot massages with topical gels and some spinal straightening exercises and even yoga are very helpful.  Further, researches mentioned Tens (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) , acupuncture and plasma exchange.  In my opinion I recommend MRI and a neurosurgeon point of view for minor endoscopic interventions are of very high value with nerve compression or even surgical fixation with rods and plates if needed.
