Nerve pain, or neuropathic pain, is a debilitating condition that can have a profound impact on a person's quality of life. Often described as burning, stabbing, tingling, or electric shock-like sensations, nerve pain originates from damage or dysfunction in the nervous system—either in the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves. At Southern Neurology in Miranda, our team of highly experienced neurologists offers specialised diagnosis and comprehensive care for individuals suffering from nerve-related pain.

Whether you're dealing with long-standing discomfort or newly emerging symptoms, our nerve pain specialist in Miranda are here to help uncover the root cause and provide effective, evidence-based treatment options.

How We Diagnose Nerve Pain

At Southern Neurology, we believe in a comprehensive approach to diagnosis. We begin with a detailed consultation and physical examination, followed by advanced diagnostic testing when needed. These may include:

• Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) Assess how fast electrical impulses move through your nerves.

  • Electromyography (EMG) Evaluates the electrical activity of muscles to detect nerve damage.

  • MRI or CT Scans Identify structural issues such as spinal disc problems or nerve compression.

  • Blood Tests Rule out systemic causes like diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, or autoimmune conditions.

  • Lumbar Puncture (if needed) Helps assess inflammatory or infectious causes of nerve pain.

  This thorough diagnostic process allows us to pinpoint the exact cause of your nerve pain and tailor a treatment plan to your specific needs.
