- intercostal neuralgia (osteochondrosis develops in the breast, pain in ribs);
- neuralgia nerve of thigh (characterized by pain, numbness of the outer surface of the troublesRA increases with movement);
- neuralgia wing palatine ganglion (pain in the sky, temples, eyes);
- occipital nerve neuralgia (pain in the neck region of the arc - the eye, which may be accompanied by vomiting) .
Treatment of primary phase is reduced to the removal of pain and physical therapy rehabilitation. The second phase is reduced to lecheniyu underlying disease that caused the development of neuralgia.
