Neuropathic (Nerve) Pain -- from Toe to Head
Dr. Ian Carroll discusses neuropathic pain, which involves damage to the nerve. The condition causes the nerves to fire incessantly, even if the initial source of the pain has been remedied. The brain responds by creating an ongoing message of pain.
Speaker: Ian Carroll, MD, Assistant Professor, Anesthesia, Stanford University Medical Center

@Ronald Krikorian Its a mouthful - "Adult onset tethered cord with giant intrasacral meningocele, " which has caused permanent damage to the nerves associated with the cauda equina, plus my spinal cord having been under tension for 30+ years, which also lead to lumbar arthritis and protruding discs and all that. I also have a connective tissue disorder that causes instability of the spine (all joints, really) so I go to the chiropractor multiple times a month to get everything put back where it belongs.

I just was in the ER and honestly had a very traumatic experience not being taken seriously and having 4 doctors pin me down to sedate me. I was sent home and they didn’t even try to see what was wrong the doctor pressed my stomach once and I didn’t see her again. This is the validation I needed because what I felt was real and it really damaged a person when you ignore their pain

I too have never heard neuropathy explained in this way. I’m 54, and have had three back surgeries, discectomies from T-1 through L-5, and lamiectomies, with spinal fusion, at all levels. I’ve just never been free of nerve pain, even after the surgery. I’m a nurse, and continue to work full time, battling nerve pain every day. People just have no idea how bad nerve pain really is. Along with the nerve pain, I have numbness and tingling from my lower back to my toes, and some days it feels like my legs are on fire. Thank God I’m able to get up and work most days! Remember, it could always be worse…..God Bless.

Way back in 1976 when I was in the USN I sneezed really hard and bent over and ruptured a disc in my back. I had fallen several times before with no major issues. I think this may have contributed to what happened. I was in severe pain and I was subjected to procedures that were supposed to help but only made the pain worse. I was finally placed in Bethesda naval hospital! They seemed to believe that I was "malingering" which is a term used to describe someone who is faking injury or pain to try to get out of duty. That was far from the case! I then needed to go through many tests which ended up being painful due to what was wrong with me. They finally decided that I had a ruptured disc and I needed surgery. The next day after surgery I was urged to get up and walk and lo and behold the pain was gone! About five years ago I started having issues with falling and to make a long story short I have severe diabetic polyneuropathy. I was misdiagnosed for 5 months and in extreme pain. It took another couple of months to convince somebody that I needed to see a neurologist. Meanwhile I was placed into a rehab where they kept trying to get me to walk at cetera without doing anything to help my excruciating pain. Even after I got my diagnosis from the neurologist they would not prescribe anything strong enough because the doctors are all worried about the opioid crisis. Finally the neurologist referred me to a pain center and they prescribed Tramadol which is the only thing that has helped me! Lyrical made me gain 100 pounds and become bedridden! After going off Lyrica and using Tramadol I lodt 94 lbs and am able to get around again... but I'm still considered disabled. Don't give up no matter how many times people try to tell you it's all in your head or it's some other thing that's causing your problem. You know your body they don't!

What it is difficult to explain to them, not just other people but Drs as well, is that things like Vicodin do not work on Neuropathic pain. Tramadol is a good starter, Percocet works, but the best thing I have found for my ruptured discs and degenerative disc disease is Suboxone. I will NEVER be pain free, but this makes it tolerable.

Are you in Canada? I was 51, presented with a true and severe nerve compression injury and I was utterly gaslighted. All ten doctors I saw at home misrepresented the truth, wrote fraudulent statements in their consult notes and I was purposely misdiagnosed! They were covering up that metal had migrated in my body and wanted to avoid a lawsuit. I’m lucky to be alive. I had to hire a registered nurse consultant to get the life saving and sanity sparing surgery I needed! Doctors can no longer be trusted. They have lost true compassion and caring.

It's gone from my lower back and now in my groin , my buttocks and down my legs. Nothing is helping it. Now they have me going groin to a shrink because my anxiety over the moon. They treat me like I am crazy. It keeps getting more painful. I can't do this much longer. I have had 2 back surgeries and the last one helped for about a year and a half. Now it is Constantly severe pain. I am at a point I cannot stand or walk anymore. I pray every night to not wake tomorrow. I need a Dr that will believe the pain I am in. I am so done.

@Callie And Her Sweethearts I have had back / leg nerve issues for over two decades. Have taken many different drugs (codeine, anti-inflammatories, Vioxx, Lyrica and now Gabapentin) for nerve pains over the years. I now have CKD (Chronic kidney disease) as a result. 3 operations later I am much improved but find I can not take less than 3x100mg Gabapentin as nerve pains return. I actually suspect possibly fibromyalgia and other weird leg sensations like restless legs is a precursor to nerve pain. I had restless legs syndrome before experiencing nerve pain. I still get the weird leg sensations now, but not as severe as before, because I don't wish to take more gabapentin. I found doxylamine succinate helps calm restless legs syndrome. I wouldn't be surprised if that could possibly help fibromyalgia sufferers too. I understand that is not addictive, or hasn't been for me. Worst thing about nerve pain medications is I found weight gain issues.

Not only is this dude brilliant but he also knows how to approach and explain things that most people who are not M.D.s can in fact come to appreciate and from which to gain knowledge. I am so impressed by this 1.5-hour lecture. My brother has had 4 major back surgeries and suffers without break from nerve pain; I am convinced that his surgeons injured his nerves (plural !) to cause his pain. Unbelievably, since he visits doctors because of this pain (doctors who are incapable of helping him at all), some are convinced that he needs a "serious mental health evaluation," like patient "DS" in Dr. Carroll's talk.

Thankyou Dr. Ian. As a chronic pain sufferer for 50 years. ( FYI Adhesions and fibromyalgia etc) Diet changes and fasting etc have given me degrees of improvements...this talk is the next gift from the Lord in my journey of improvement. Like many commenters I have been through the ropes of specialists , medications and mistreatment. Being married to a wonderful doctor for over 40 years ( and knowing many dedicated doctors) I do not resent them and realise they do their best for which I am grateful. They do not know everything as my husband says ...and we are all learning always. We are also responsible for our own health as well. Having said that , I've had my share of frustration etc. Let's move on from now, receive any help such as this and share our experience with others and doctors. By the way , I'm a Christian so I pray for my doctors not just for myself. My love and prayers go out to all who have and are suffering like myself.

I will tell you how irritating and insulting especially for a woman any age to go to doctor with pain and be told it’s all in your head, get your hair done, etc stupid stuff. Do doctors really think we have nothing to do but waste our time and Money to go in and complain of pain. Pain that is visibly ruining our quality of life. Studies prove men with same complaints get help without begging. Hope this has stopped. Back in 1980 it was prevelant when spikes of fibromyalgia reared it’s head across country . I facilitated pain support groups for 23 years at local hospitals. Was heart breaking to listen to patients mostly women who could not be heard by their doctors and properly treated.. great talk.

I have been a chronic pain patient for over 20 years and I’m now under prescribed due to the opioid crisis. I have been working on getting off of anything because the pain never goes away anyway now.

I was in a mobility chair for awhile which helped and my pain management they don't understand why I'm still walking. I have no strength in arms or legs. I've been on pain meds for decades but I'm always looking and listening for some form of relieve. The Dr. that was taking care of me has left the office but he doesn't believe there is any room to put the needle for injections. The nerve treatment you mentioned sounds promising.Thank you sir!

Great explanation of what chronic pain does to one!! A problem I experienced was that although my nerve pain was controlled with Gabapentin and Morphine…. I found myself ostracized by my Drs when the opioid crisis blamed me and my fellow CP suffers for the epidemic…. While the 20 years of GABA and Morphine was not perfect… I could at least get out of bed and now after years of trying to find relief from others my medical records are polluted with psychiatric innuendo and knee jerk diagnoses. I am sick from hearing Drs explain their views on the damage opiates cause….. I used them over 20 years…. never once asking for more and now on paper I look like a screaming junkie…. feeling shame every time I ask for pain relief

this is truly wonderful, coming from a person who is in remission from RSD who chose to seek therapies that weren't conventional, finding a doctor who was willing to help find something to relieve my pain. You explained it all so well and so many doctors need to learn the compassion and care you've provided. These conditions aren't fictional, we are not seeking attention, we live in pain that has no comparison. Our lives ae destroyed on every level. Short of bankruptcy, emotional distress, people who label you as crazy. They have no idea what it's like to live this. To try to find doctors who really hear you, who can see the changes in your body, the pain in your eyes, the desperate searching for help. Please continue to share this, please continue to speak. I'm in remission because of two doctors one who was trying a different protocol, one who was willing to work with this doctor to try to help eliminate my pain. 17 years later I am in remission, but I've lived the hell of RSD, and occasionally have flairs. This started in my foot and heel and encompasses my whole right side. I feel its presence everyday and no longer feel the continual 24/7 uncontrolled pain. I only use medication as needed and tend to stay away from all doctors.. truly I've been at war and do not want to keep living the battle. The depression I couldn't see for years, the reality of where I'd become and the respect I have to keep RSD at bay by seeing and knowing signs of change, care for my body to try and live a life somewhat pain free, and hopefully never to be engulfed in pain that doctors don't understand and or respect. Please keep working to help save the many more who are not in remission. Thank you for a wonderful video!

After two years of trying to diagnose the reasons for my pain, I was given the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia. This was not before med students were paraded past me and I was told I needed to seek help from a psychiatrist. It was the most horrible time of my life. When you know you are in pain and you know when and where it first started but you have no answers as to why it has become large and complicated and the medical community has no clear cut answers either you begin to think you really are crazy. some people in chronic pain commit suicide! Living, daily, in unrelenting pain is inhuman torture and having no one understand why is even worse. I wish I had a doctor like you! I should add, all this happened to me in 1990!

In fairness, many medications and treatments had been tried. I think two things are at work, one is the persistent view that people are not in “real pain”, and that everyone likes the way narcotics make them feel, and therefore literally everyone is a drug seeker at some level. I would go as far as saying that most chronic pain sufferers would benefit from psychological and spiritual support. It wears a person down, and depression can easily complicate the picture. Further, sleep disturbances due to pain can prevent adequate REM sleep, leading to real psychological issues.

Have you had an MRI on your lumbar spine or any kind of X-rays? You also would want to cut out sugar, processed foods, and vegetable omega 6 oils (canola, corn, sunflower margarine) and lose any extra weight. As your health improves you will have less pain. But I can see you do have some nerve damage somewhere so keep trying to get a diagnoses. Lyrica without an opiate is obviously not working for you . You are going to have to request it and keep demanding help. I also suggest doing a spiritual practice with breathing exercises. This will help you with your depression. Not getting help with pain from your doctor is barbaric and they need to be held accountable.

@Christinnne, this sounds like small fiber neuropathy for sure. See if you can find a neuromuscular neurologist, because even most neurologists don’t know about this. It does not show up on standard neuro exams, or on EMGs and nerve conduction studies. Diagnosis requires a skin biopsy over the shin.

I’ve suffered with nerve pain for 55 years. Pain management consists of controlled pain meds and cortisone shots. But the worst pain I’ve had is much more recent. I was diagnosed with West Nile Virus which was detected by a lumbar puncture. The lumbar puncture was performed by a doctor who obviously wasn’t great at it. As a result, on top of wNV, encephalitis, and meningitis, I was dealing with the most excruciating pain I’ve ever felt. It was so bad, I went to a very dark place in my mind. None of my doctors could help me. The only thing that helped was time. However, this nerve damage left me with a right leg that is only at about 50% capacity. I’m

I have neuropathy caused by bunched up nerves in my buttocks like the top of my buttocks they say. I am losing the feeling in my legs and the ability to walk. This is on top of being the first 500 to get the so-called cure for hepatitis c which caused me to be disabled at the age of 38. Excruciating pain and they over medicated us with oxycontin then it went completely the other way for all you get is beautiful nephron which has no effect on my pain you think that would mean something to us pain specialist but no it doesn't. They just said give you like that's all you get and it's I've seen people respond like they're on heroin when they take that stuff but with me I sat there with just a headache and taken several of the pills and it did nothing didn't make me sleepy didn't make me awake didn't make me talk funny this is asking other people did nothing for my pain and I am at my Wit's end on why can't they do something now I have this neuropathy all these things are coming to fruition cirrhosis of the liver non-alcoholic emphysema fibroid disease and all these these tests so far have been perfectly normal like it's all in your head. Now I'm getting this horrific rash in my groin and area and thought that you know between the thighs and the groin and under my breast and it's wet I've even put anti-perspirant on it and that stopped it just cuz that it's like wet constantly sweating and it's like my sweat is so acidic it's just burning and I imagine it has to do with the liver or something but I don't know what to do about this rash and the pain problems. But I've heard that beautiful nephrine and Suboxone were invented by the same place that oxycontin came from. What the heck is going on. I can't get Vicodin I can't get oxycodone or anything like that and it actually the two were great together because you can take one and then take Beaufort and it keeps the addiction response down I've tried it it worked but my doctors they just keep lowering everything and I was on way too much before oxycontin so much antidepressants Ritalin everything I wanted. And then I mentioned it to another doctor in my doctor got so mad that I ratted him off that he dumped me. And I had to go through treatment to get off to overcome the withdrawals from that stuff. It was a nightmare. But why am I blamed why can't I just have a little bit of pain medicine but now it's like nothing and to be honest I'm 65 I'm so sick of this constant pain now it's getting worse I'm getting less pain medicine it is just and and the socially I'm not validated I'm cruely pushed out of the family a holidays my children just you know think I'm worthless you know and it all came about because I went to treatment and did my 10 steps and their reaction was a whole you'll never get off drugs you know. And and just I'm I'm a faking it for attention and drugs up to a 5 years ago my family thinks this and why would I do that I'm from a college oriented family why would I want to be on welfare so poverty stricken for all my life I have no way of changing it I can't work I can't go to school they destroyed us yet we signed a waiver I mean no doctor even knows anything about it. So they say.

Absolutely. Before I got my living wage job I was working 80 hour weeks and still on food stamps, poor as hell. I told someone I only paid the essential bills with immediate consequences. Like rent. Other things go to collections oh well. I said rent and internet were where the first money went as I could go to a food pantry. The person laughed, at being that poor and having to have internet up there with rent. They didn't get it- the part of the internet that is like this video. It was my key to learn, which is what I like. It's how I can get skills that help in life. I can get information in seconds and information is power. The internet is absolutely beautiful.

I have bulging disk and degenerative discs. I spend half my day taking care of my body which has cause caused anxiety and depression.

Dr Carrol, this is fantastic to hear you speak about this topic. I am a remedial therapist in Australia and I added on modalities of the nervous system, muscular skeletal therapy, the lymphatic system, reflexology, and the brain. You obviously have a huge understanding of this knowledge of nerve problems and the data charts of nerve referral connections to the area that the patient says the pain or stiffness stems from. It’s all the nervous systems working here with any pain. Which after time causes referral pain that just is never ending. As this pain encompasses the whole body, I have treated my Fibromyalgia patients knowing using these references. I think Fibromyalgia could be caused systemically by years of referred pain. And have found Duloxitine is a great nerve suppressor. It’s like an onion layer that needs to be slowly pulled apart. Knowing the sections of the body that main nerves from the spine refer to in functional response to Pain, can tell us so much. Especially if say the thecal sac was being pinched by a protruding disc or transverse joint that is out of its structural normal. This pain goes all around the body from tingling to aches in shoulders, scaps, neck, jaw, spine, toes, legs etc. The chemical imbalance that can arise from these body changed functions and alerts of pain often trigger chemical imbalance in the brain of Serotonin , epinephrin etc as you have said. The charts for referred nerve pain should be studied by all medical disciplines. As well as a much deeper understanding of how nerves work with the body. Duloxetine works for nerve pain very well and all associated chemical imbalances that can cause depression in this pain situation. As for your. audience guy that spoke of getting into bed and having feet aches, stinging, hot or so annoying that you have to shake your leg or feet.I have found this is due to really tight calf muscles putting pressure on the nerve going down the outside of the lower leg. Trigger point massage and releasing parts of the calf muscle will stop this aching pain straight away. The patient needs to push hard into there calf muscles and find the spots of pain and massage deeply to relax the muscle. Great great speech, your knowledge is so refreshing for all medical, natural and remedial healers out there.

Would trigger point massage help with demyelinated nerves? My husband has mono neuritis multiplex following a vaccine adverse reaction over 10 years ago. He’s on lyrica, duloxotine, patches and about 6 other medications. He’s in constant pain and completely withdrawn hence my inability to name his medications. Due to constant pain, frustration, medication side effects etc he’s like a bear with a sore paw and so hard to live with. He’s vicious and selfish due to pain. Reliving pain would help him and our whole family! We are in Adelaide. Can you please let me know where you are 🙏🏻

@@007Jacqui Hello Jaquie, in answer to your question I would say no. Unfortunately breakdown of myelin is usually associated with MS and by changing his diet may help. Inflammation associated with insulin imbalances can also be involved. There are many KZfaq sites that you can visit for help regarding his condition. Just type it in or see if doctors sites can recommend the best treatments. Just checking myself it looks as though going onto the Keto diet may help a lot. There would also be many supplements that may also help such as B vitamins especially B1. I’m sorry I can’t be of more help, but if I find more I will pass it on. Good luck 😇

I got two and a half minutes into this video, where the subject patient was referred to a psychiatrist, and I started tearing up. I had to beg my primary care doctor for a referral to a neurologist - he just did not believe there was anything wrong. When I finally saw a neurologist, he diagnosed me with "severe and advanced" axonal neuropathy consistent with Charcot-Marie-Tooth. I was 40. Why I had to fight so hard to see the neurologist I will never understand. Over time, conduction studies also indicated demyelination. At 50 I went on disability, and I've had four foot surgeries and spent a year in a CROW boot. I am exhausted just doing nothing, and everything I do is against this awful wall of pain and fatigue. I take 2,400 mg gabapentin daily, but there are weeks at a time when the buzzing and shocks in my feet and aching in my arms and hands keep be from sleeping. It's bad enough having this, but it is doubly bad that so few understand.

Ice tylenol, but the redi care was closed and the ER too scary due to covid so I waited and it's ok. It was so wierd. It doesn't even look that bad, probably because of the ice. It was like three hours of agony. How could it hurt so much and not be broken. This explains it.
