Increased Pain Due To Recurred Postherpetic Neuralgia. On Neuron Tin, Advil. What Else Can Be Done To Reduce Pain?

I have had postherpetic neuralgia for 10 years. It has been pretty mild. I went through a stressful period this summer when my company sold and the pain increased greatly. Will it subside again or could this be a new normal? Anything else I can do but rest? I'm taking neuron tin, Advil and lots of vitamins.

Dear neuron tin is one of the best treatment of neuralgia, you should see the dosage.If you take it till 600 mg and no benefit is seen maybe it is time to switch to tegretol starting 200mg per day for 4-5days till600mg per day.Take Advil 3times a day.wish you all the best
