◼️Nerve Pain: What It Feels Like and How PT Can Help◼️
Nerve pain feels different than muscle or joint pain — and it often shows up in surprising ways.
Here’s what nerve pain might feel like:
⚡ Sharp, shooting, or burning sensations
🧊 Tingling, numbness, or “pins and needles”
🧠 Pain that travels — like down the arm or leg
🦵 Weakness or coordination changes
Common causes include:
• Sciatica
• Carpal tunnel
• Pinched nerves
• Diabetic neuropathy
✨ PT helps by improving posture, mobility, and nerve gliding — reducing irritation and restoring function.
