Vitamins
B are common oral medications to treat peripheral neuropathy and
neuropathic pain. Specifically, methylcobalamin (Mecbl), one of the
analogs of Vitamin B12, has been postulated to have some analgesic
property of improving neuropathic pain by enhancing the nerve conduction
velocities.
Magnesium
promotes muscle relaxation and repair which may be useful in those with
chronically tight muscle and in particular piriformis muscles. Ask your pharmacist or health practitioner about how magnesium and other supplements may be useful in your case.
Spinal
stenosis refers to a narrowing of the spinal canal leading to
compression of the spinal nerve roots or the spinal cord. There are two
types of stenosis: lumbar and cervical. In both cases, affected
individuals experience symptoms relating to the nerves of the spinal
cord. Because most nerves travel through the spinal column, symptoms can
be wide-ranging and affect the entire body.
