Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

These infections can result in severe pain.
The pain related is relieved by using different medications such as those directed at treated neuragia or nerve related pain or analgesic medications for moderate or severe pain.

You may want to consider speaking to your doctor regarding medications such as tegretol, gabapentin or amitriptyline
In addition you may other strong analgesic medications that require a prescription.

I hope this helps
