Hi,

It could be due to neuropathic causes and you can take analgesics like tramadol for pain relief. If symptoms persist longer, you can consult a neurologist and get evaluated, you may require a nerve conduction study in that case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
