Patient's question:
My family members have intercostal neuralgia caused by shingles, which has been going on for over a year. What are some effective treatments? How effective is taking pregabalin capsules? Help me: How effective is taking pregabalin capsules?Doctor's answer:
If you are in this situation and use medication, the effect is relatively good. You can also appropriately use carbamazepine to relieve neuropathic pain, as both have certain effects, so there is no need to worry. You should pay attention to rest appropriately in daily life, and many physical therapy and massage exercises can also be implemented on the limbs. If used in conjunction with medication, the effect will be much better. For severe conditions, it is recommended that you seek medical attention as soon as possible and take medication and treatment based on the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. Do not use medication blindly to avoid worsening the condition. The above opinions are for reference only. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
