Intercostal neuralgia, what are the symptoms of intercostal neuralgia

It may be intercostal neuralgia, and the intercostal neuralgia is severe in nature, usually stabbing or burning; may be persistent or paroxysmal; Pain worsens when taking deep breaths, yawning, coughing, sneezing, or moving the spine.

Guidance on pain points can be compressed with a hot water bottle, it is best to go to acupuncture, cupping and pain point injection triamcinolatomide works well.

Patients with intercostal neuralgia are recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine**, no, there is no requirement for physical condition, and the effect is also good. The "soft ribs, Shungu, Anyu, and stickers" of Zhubao are highly targeted, symptomatic, non-toxic, high-rate, not easy, do not damage and destroy nerves, have no sequelae, and are ideal for patients with intercostal neuralgia.

In addition, patients with intercostal neuralgia should pay attention to the following items to avoid aggravation of the condition.

1. Avoid some triggers that cause intercostal neuralgia. People with intercostal neuralgia experience severe pain when turning, laughing, taking deep breaths, yawning, coughing, and sneezing, so these triggers must be avoided to reduce the pain.

2. Seek medical attention as soon as possible. Intercostal neuralgia is sometimes not limited to the chest, but also to the back and abdomen. Therefore, in order to get an accurate diagnosis, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital.

3.Keep your emotions in check. People with intercostal neuralgia experience severe pain when turning, laughing, taking deep breaths, and yawning, so it is essential to control their emotions in order to alleviate the pain.

4.Office staff should pay attention to their sitting posture and avoid fatigue.

5.Keep warm and avoid getting cold.

1. Most of the pain sites occur in the left 5-9 intercostal space, and there are also bilateral pain, and the nature of the pain can be manifested as swelling pain, channeling pain, tingling pain, and dull pain, which is often reversed.

2. The nature of the pain is stinging and burning, which is aggravated during the attack, and usually intensified during strenuous exercise, sneezing, coughing or deep inhalation. At the beginning of the attack, the evidence is mainly empirical and the pain is severe, and when the medical history is long, the false evidence is mainly the main evidence, and the pain is mostly dull.

3. There are tender points along the diseased nerves, obvious tenderness in the paraspinous process and intercostal space of the thoracic vertebrae, tenderness at the edge of the corresponding ribs, and hyperesthesia or hypoesthesia in the distribution area of the affected nerve.

4. This disease belongs to traditional Chinese medicine"Hypochondriac pain"Range. Hypochondria is a young yang, internal causes: hepatobiliary lesions; External causes: wind, cold, dampness, etc., resulting in unfavorable meridian qi of Shaoyang, making the meridians blocked, causing flank pain. It is often accompanied by nausea, bitter mouth and other symptoms of hepatobiliary disease.

5. Laboratory tests such as blood routine, liver function, cholecystography, and B-ultrasound are helpful for diagnosis. Acute hepatitis, chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatic parasitic disease, liver cancer, acute cholecystitis, chronic cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis, and flank trauma are common causes.

Intercostal neuralgia, according to our clinical experience, is caused by viruses such as stinging, itching, tearing, burning, throbbing and other symptoms, which can be treated effectively with traditional Chinese medicine**, and most patients with intercostal neuralgia eliminate pain symptoms in 3-8 times.

In intercostal neuralgia, pain may be seen radiating in a semi-annular shape along the corresponding intercostal space from back to front; The pain is stabbing or burning. The pain worsens when you cough, take deep breaths or sneeze. The pain is more common in neuralgia of one nerve on one side.

Intercostal neuralgia is divided into two types: secondary and primary, and radicular neuralgia can be secondary to thoracic degeneration, thoracic tuberculosis, thoracic spine injury, thoracic duraitis, tumors and other diseases. Viral infections, rib lesions, and pleural lesions can lead to dry intercostal neuralgia, and primary intercostal neuralgia is rare. When intercostal neuralgia occurs, it can be seen that the pain is from back to front, radiating semi-annularly along the corresponding intercostal space, the pain is stabbing or burning, the pain is aggravated when coughing and deep breathing, the pain is mostly on one side of a certain nerve, and the physical examination finds that there is obvious tenderness in the paraspinous process and intercostal space of the thoracic vertebrae.

Patients with typical radicular intercostal neuralgia have a positive neck flexion test, and neurologic impairment such as hyperesthesia or hypoesthesia is often present in the distribution of the affected nerves.

Nerves are all over every part of the body, pain nerves are very common, there is a more sensitive response to pain, some people have a more painful phenomenon between the ribs, and other health problems are basically not, so I don't know what is the murderer who causes this phenomenon? Next, let's find out what intercostal neuralgia is all about.

1. Poisoning or infection.

Poisoning is more common in life, and generally causes more damage to the nervous system, of course, there are many problems caused by infection, and intercostal neuralgia is more common in life, in fact, there are 15 reasons, which may be caused by poisoning or infection, which is a secondary type.

2. Caused by pleurisy.

Pleurisy is a seemingly serious condition, but it is actually an inflammatory condition that can cause nerve pain between the ribs. Rib nerve pain is caused by pleurisy with a probability of about 1 3, so it is also a major factor, and the doctor will investigate this factor first.

3. Lumbar spine injury.

The lumbar spine is a very important place in the human body, only friends with healthy lumbar spine can move freely and walk upright, when affected by some external or indirect factors, resulting in injuries to this place, the various organs of the corresponding parts will be subject to some relatively large injuries, and patients may have symptoms of rib neuralgia. Generally this cause is the main factor that causes intercostal neuralgia, and it is known that 1 in 4 patients are caused by this factor.

The situation of intercostal neuralgia can not be ignored, and the pain brought to the patient is also relatively large, and there is no way to find a solution from the root, it will be easy to repeat the situation, so before dealing with the problem of intercostal neuralgia, you should cooperate with the doctor's examination, so as to find the problem and solve the problem from the root.

Typical symptoms: At the onset of intercostal neuralgia, pain can be seen radiating from back to front, radiating in a semi-annular shape along the corresponding intercostal space; The pain is stabbing or burning. The pain worsens when you cough, take deep breaths or sneeze. The pain is more common in one nerve on one side.

Diagnosis of intercostal neuralgia symptoms.

Intercostal neuralgia is divided into secondary and primary, and radicular neuralgia can be secondary to thoracic degeneration, thoracic tuberculosis, thoracic spine injury, thoracic duraitis, tumors, ankylosing spondylitis and other diseases; Rib, mediastinal, or pleural lesions can lead to dry intercostal neuralgia. Primary intercostal neuralgia is rare.

At the onset of intercostal neuralgia, pain can be seen radiating from back to front along the corresponding intercostal space in a semi-circular shape; The pain is stabbing or burning. The pain worsens when you cough, take deep breaths or sneeze. The pain is more common in one nerve on one side.

Physical examination reveals significant tenderness in the paraspinous process and intercostal space of the thoracic vertebrae; Patients with typical radicular intercostal neuralgia have a positive neck flexion test; Neurologic impairment such as hyperesthesia or hypoesthesia is often present in the distribution of affected nerves.

When intercostal neuralgia occurs, patients may be relieved by topical diclofenac sodium ointment and oral profenoine. At the same time, the patient should rest more and refrain from doing exercises such as push-ups and pull-ups. If symptoms persist, the patient needs to go to the neurology department for a thoracic spine CT examination.

If thoracic hyperostosis and intervertebral disc herniation are found to compress the nerves, the patient needs to be administered a combination of traction, occlusion, physiotherapy, and nutritional nerve drugs.

It could be intercostal neuralgia, which is now the best **not a drug**. It is generally recommended to carry out massage and intercostal injection** is more effective, do not eat spicy food and cold things on the outside diet, and pay attention to keeping warm. Dyspnea is caused by the contraction of the external oblique muscles around the ribs during pain, and you can also go to the hospital for targeting**, symptomatic**, pay attention to sitting posture, and move after sitting for a long time.

Intercostal neuralgia. The most common** is herpes zoster infection, but bone hyperplasia like the thoracic spine and hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum and spinal stenosis can also compress nerve roots, resulting in intercostal neuralgia. First of all, you can take some painkillers orally, such as diclofenac sodium sustained-release capsules and carbamazepine, and you can usually do more hot compresses.

If there is no improvement, a thoracic spine MRI can be performed, a nerve root compression can be surgically treated, and if it is caused by a herpes zoster infection, radiofrequency ** and occlusive drug injection** can be performed.

Actually, if you're in this situation, you'd better go. Take a look at the doctor in a tertiary hospital. After all, people are professional, you don't want to collect them on this website. Let's go to the hospital right away.

Intercostal neuralgia, also known as intercostal neuritis, is a group of symptoms that refer to damage to the thoracic nerve root (i.e., the intercostal nerves) due to different causes

Maybe the liver and gallbladder are not good, especially if you are overeating, the pain is obvious, you can go to the hospital to do a color ultrasound.

You go to the hospital and have a look, can you ask here? Delay things.

Intercostal neuralgia is common in functional or organic pathological changes of the cervicothoracic spine, and can also be seen in referred pain caused by trauma and visceral functional diseases. Clinically, taking painkillers can only provide temporary relief. Tips, this disease is very annoying and troublesome.

Suspected systemic disease examination is required to confirm the diagnosis, and the qualitative accuracy is correct as soon as possible.

Intercostal neuralgia is divided into primary intercostal neuralgia and secondary intercostal neuralgia. Primary intercostal neuralgia is rare and unexplained. Secondary intercostal neuralgia is common and can be divided into:

Thoracic degeneration, thoracic tuberculosis, thoracic spine injury, thoracic duraitis, tumors, ankylosing spondylitis and other diseases can be secondary to radicular intercostal neuralgia.

Viral infections, rib, mediastinum, or pleural lesions, may be secondary to dry intercostal neuralgia.

Intercostal neuralgia is a common pre-agromal pain symptom that can cause inflammation of the intercostal nerves, which can lead to pain.

Symptoms of intercostal neuralgia include pain, tingling, numbness, and a burning sensation that can occur in areas such as the shoulders, chest, upper arms, and forearms.

There are many ways to treat intercostal neuralgia, first of all, medications such as anti-inflammatories, analgesics, antidepressants, etc., should be taken to reduce pain symptoms.

Secondly, physical **, such as hot compresses, massage, ultrasound**, etc., should be taken to relieve pain.

In addition, self-management measures such as improving posture, reducing exercise, and improving sleep quality can also be taken to reduce pain.

In addition, surgeries, such as intercostal neurotomy, intercostal nerve implantation, etc., can also be used to achieve intercostal neuralgia.

However, surgery is a last resort and should only be considered if there is no other way to control the pain.

In conclusion, intercostal neuralgia is a common pain symptom that can be achieved by remorseful methods such as medication, physics, self-management measures, and surgery.

However, before intercostal neuralgia, a detailed examination should be carried out to determine, and the most appropriate method should be selected in light of the individual situation.
