Take the first step towards a pain-free life

Dr.Merheb may, first, recommend injections of steroids or anesthetic medications into the affected nerve(s) to relieve inflammation and pain. Anesthetic injections may also be used to make it easier for you to engage in physical therapy. Physical therapy and non-stressing, at-home exercise may help naturally relieve built-up pressure.

Dr. Merheb also specializes in regenerative medicine therapies and non-surgical techniques, which utilize injections of stem cells and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to promote the natural growth of new nerve tissue.

Spinal cord stimulation is another treatment option offered to severe cases of neuropathy. This treatment involves implanting a device that connects to your nervous system and delivers shallow currents of electricity throughout the body. The electricity interferes with your pain signals traveling to the brain and allows you to easily control your pain levels.
