Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per my clinical experience, the issue is related to possible nerve irritation or else, which not necessarily require anti seizure medications in all the instances.
* There are specific molecules as Pregabaline, Methyl Cobalamine or else which give excellent results in such symptoms before anti seizure medications.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
