Sandra,

First the bad news, there is no way to repair nerve damage.

Now the good. Neurontin and Lyrica drugs help lessen the effects of the nerve damage, if that's what it is. They do have their side effects but with severe pain, are well worth it.

Also, there may be something pressing on your nerve and that should be investigated via an MRI or other test. I'm in no way any kind of health care professional but that kind of severe pain may be nerve compression somewhere.

However, even while investigating what's causing your pain, you can still take either of these two drugs.

Good luck, Dale
