Hi! I had serious hand injury. Doctor told me that I have nerve damage. I have severe pain, and that bothers me a lot. I can’t use my hand. What is nerve damage treatment?
Hi! In some cases, no treatment is required and recovery is spontaneous. Corticosteroids injected into the area may reduce swelling and pressure on the nerve in some cases.
Over-the-counter analgesics or prescription pain medications may be needed to control pain Ask your doctor for pain relievers. Some pain relievers could cause addiction. The use of these drugs should be avoided or minimized to reduce the risk of medication side effects. Be careful!
