What treatment should I get for nerve root compression?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. We are here with the intention of assisting you.

Understanding the distress caused by radicular pain, I would like to offer some suggestions for managing it. It's important to consult your specialist doctor, engage in a discussion about your condition, and proceed with any treatment under their informed consent.

Consider a combination of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin to address the pain. Applying Diclofenac ointment locally and applying hot fomentation to the affected area can be beneficial. Exploring physiotherapy, particularly ultrasonic heat massage, is recommended. For longer-term relief, SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) like Duloxetine could be helpful. Tramadol may also be taken for pain alleviation.

In cases where nerve compression is severely affecting motor function and causing tingling on either side of the body, surgical intervention might become necessary. It's essential to work closely with your doctor to determine the most suitable course of action.
