Besides, regarding nerve pain, there are many causes of nerve pain. Some of it is due to infections such as shingles, multiple sclerosis, any nerve compression, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and trauma. Some nerve pain can be really severe and debilitating. Investigations should be done to find out what causes nerve pain such as blood glucose level, blood culture x-ray of the spine and renal profile. Management of nerve pain is by treating the underlying cause. However, in some cases, pain reliever needs to be prescribed.
