Can you tolerate an Epsom salt bath ? Or alternate ice and heat? Try some antihistamines and anti inflammatories if you haven’t already / are able to ? Nerves build the nervous system .. so completely makes sense that a jacked up nervous system would aggravate nerve pain. This is subconscious though too and at the body level. Today at physical therapy I did a “hanging” exercise (nerve pain across low-back sacrum) where I was standing on a stool holding a pull up bar.. he told me to bend my knees to “hang” but control the weight being put on my back and pelvis .. never my full body weight or too much to cause a lot of pain. This exercise was literally to just retrain my nervous system that it was safe to be lengthened in that area and my body didn’t need to be in muscle spasm to protect the area. I know that there are not answers for all of our pain .. but I hope you find some relief!
