Hello Reader,

Is your pain burning, stabbing, shooting or “electric like”? These suggest a nerve pain component.

Neuropathic pain can be triggered by illness (e.g., diabetes, low thyroid), infections (e.g., shingles), pinched nerves (e.g., Carpal Tunnel Syndrome), nutritional deficiencies (e.g., vitamin B6 and B12), nerve injury (e.g., tumors, spinal cord injury, and multiple sclerosis), and medication/treatment side effects (e.g., radiation and chemotherapy, AIDS drugs, macrodantin and Flagyl®).

In addition, chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme, and Long COVID can trigger a secondary small fiber neuropathy (SFN). Addressing the pain will usually help resolve this condition.
