Patient's question:
I haven't known what's going on for the past two days, my entire back is in pain. It starts from the breasts, goes through the armpits, and all the way to the back, like a burning sensation from chili peppers. I can't even dare to touch it, and after a thorough examination, the doctor said it's neuritis. Hello, what kind of medicine can treat neuritis?Doctor's answer:
Back pain, this situation depends on what caused it? Burning pain could be due to nerve damage, such as shingles. If the pain is caused by shingles, antiviral and nerve-nourishing medications should be used. It could also be due to other bacterial infections. If it's not contagious, you can use nerve-nourishing medications alone for treatment, preferably under the guidance of a doctor to use the appropriate nerve-nourishing medications.In your case, radiating pain from the breast to the back is highly likely to be nerve pain caused by shingles. Pay close attention and carefully observe if any blisters appear. If blisters do appear, treat them as shingles.
