I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?

Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment. Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).

I'm experiencing twitching all over my body, like in my arms, legs, neck, and back. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

Body-wide twitching can be caused by various factors, including anxiety or stress, caffeine or nicotine excess, electrolyte imbalances (potassium, magnesium, or calcium), muscle fatigue, or underlying medical conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, or peripheral neuropathy, so consider consulting a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions and determine the best course of action.

I've been having full body tingling, muscle spasms, and neck and back pain that radiates. I'm currently taking neugaba 150 and dulot 30 but get really bad sweating and anxiety if I miss a dose. Should I see a surgeon or stick with medication management for this? Worried about being dependent on these meds long-term.

Apollo is best for it.

I've been experiencing some unusual sensations and I'm a bit concerned. Lately, I've noticed a persistent vibration throughout my body, but it seems like I'm the only one who can feel it. Additionally, there's this burning feeling in my legs that's quite uncomfortable. And on top of that, there's a tightness in the skin on both my legs and arms. It's a strange mix of symptoms, and I'm not sure what's causing them or what I should do next. Could you help shed some light on this?

Could be peripheral neuropathy, difficult to ascertain without proper examination and history taking. For the symptoms you have described, you can consider taking Neurobion Forte tablets, along with Shelcal HD tablets. These medications can help with nerve health and overall well-being.
