Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Neurological symptoms will relieve on its own. At this point, if pain is the issue, then I suggest to consult pain specialist to relieve the pain with antineuropathic drugs. These are very good drugs and dosage should be given only after assessment. The drugs include Gapapentin or Pregabalin. These to be started only after proper consultation and check up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
