Natural Treatments for Nerve Pain May Help You Avoid These Complications

is typically a sharp, stinging, or radiating sensation that interferes with daily life. Many people turn to traditional treatments such as depression or seizure medications, short-term narcotic use, or even surgery in an attempt to find relief. However, these conventional options come with risks.

At Michigan Integrative Health, our medical team specializes in drug-free chronic pain relief using natural biologic products. If you have tried conventional treatments without success or want to explore alternatives, natural nerve pain treatments may be a safer and more effective solution.

Potential Risks of Traditional Nerve Pain Treatments

While traditional nerve pain treatments may provide temporary relief, they often come with complications that can outweigh their benefits. Some of the most concerning side effects of each approach are as follows:

• Narcotic Medications: These can cause drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, and, most notably, dependency and addiction. Long-term use increases the risk of withdrawal symptoms and cognitive impairment. In many cases, they fail to provide significant relief from neuropathic pain in the first place.
• Prescription Medications: Some drugs originally developed for depression and seizure disorders have the effect of dampening excessive pain signaling in the nerves. However, their side effects can include digestive issues, fatigue, dizziness, dry mouth, blurred vision, weight gain, and an increased risk of heart disease or liver damage. Side effects vary depending on the drug, dosage, and individual response.
• Surgical Procedures: Surgery may seem like a guaranteed solution to nerve pain. However, it carries risks such as infections, changes in sensation, long recovery times, and potential failure to alleviate pain.

It may be possible to adjust your plan to minimize side effects, but if traditional treatments have not provided relief or have caused unwanted complications, exploring natural alternatives may be a better option.

Natural biologic treatments offer a regenerative approach to nerve pain relief. While natural treatments may have their own set of side effects, they are often milder and preferable to those associated with narcotics or surgery. Our team will thoroughly discuss your options and help you determine the best approach based on your unique needs.
