NEURALGIA DIAGNOSIS |
|
|
Neuralgia is a symptom of an underlying
disorder; its diagnosis depends on finding the cause of the
condition creating the pain.
To diagnose occipital neuralgia, a doctor can inject a small amount
of anesthetic into the region of the occipital nerve. If the pain
temporarily disappears, and there are no other physical reasons for
the pain, the doctor may recommend surgery to deal with the pinched
nerve. |
