Sometimes it goes away of its own accord or after a painkiller, but for those that know the misery of ongoing pain, there is a bewildering array of treatments and advice.  Medication is the most common course of action - this can usually help to mask the pain but it normally will not solve the underlying cause.

Surgical options may be considered and where suitable, can be very effective at resolving or dramatically reducing the pain. The Hospital Group Ireland is now able to offer nerve decompression surgery, which can dramatically reduce or even end the misery caused by nerve pain (also known as neuropathy).

Nerve Decompression Treatment

This treatment is relatively uncommon in ireland, but quite widely known in the States.  It is applicable to “Diabetic Foot” syndrome and can also be used very effectively for RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury).

However, the treatment can also be used in other circumstances with very effective results:

• Sports injuries
• Pain following illness
• Pain relating to some long term medications

• Unknown causes

Surgical Treatment of Neuropathy

The surgery is undertaken with General Anaesthetic and an overnight stay is required and depending on the procedure undertaken, maybe longer.

Our team of dedicated healthcare professionals will make your recovery as comfortable as possible, but you can also help by following sensible healthy lifestyle, both before and after surgery.  If you smoke, stopping will dramatically improve your healing.  Light exercise is generally recommended and a healthy diet.  These are all sensible lifestyle choices, but for those contemplating surgery, will help you in your recovery.
