Results for tag: "Neuropathic Pain"

Neuropathic pain is a type of chronic pain caused by damage to the nervous system. It is often described as a burning, tingling, or shooting sensation. Analgesics are medications used to reduce or eliminate pain. Neuropathic pain is often treated with a combination of analgesics, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and anticonvulsants. Other treatments may include physical therapy, nerve blocks, and electrical stimulation. The neuropathic pain market is a rapidly growing segment of the analgesics market. It is driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic pain conditions, such as diabetes, cancer, and multiple sclerosis. The market is expected to benefit from the development of novel treatments, such as gene therapy and stem cell therapy. Some companies in the neuropathic pain market include Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, and Eli Lilly. Show Less Read more
