Understanding Neuropathic Pain: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

People often describe neuropathic pain as burning, stabbing, tingling, or similar to electric shocks. Because damaged nerve fibres send incorrect signals to the brain, the pain can be long‑lasting and may interfere with daily activities. In this article, we’ll look at what causes neuropathic
