Analgesics can be used
Detailed Answer:
Hi! Welcome to health care magic! Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible.
First of all, it is sad to know what you had gone through. You seem like a determined and a resilient person to carry on your routine and didn't let that amputation over power you. Based on the history you have shared, it seems that the pains if neuropathic which seems more likely, may be difficult to be cured permanently but can be controlled significantly so that your routines may not be affected and the discomfort can be dealt with. Using OTC analgesics like acetaminophen can relieve the pains but for better control discuss using duloxetine or gaba pentins with your primary doctor.
If still uncontrolled long term use of carbamezapine be considered for better pain controls. Also get a consult with pain medicine specialist to discuss for nerve blocks which can permanently control the pain.
Wishing you a speedy recovery. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Regards.
It can be due to vascular impairment
Detailed Answer:
Hi! Thanks for the feedback. The likely explanation to your symptoms is that when your limbs is covered for long and it sweats and when it comes back to normal due to its exposure to air as it dries up, the temperature cools down rapidly. It can cause blood vessels to shrink down to decrease heat exchange. It can also trigger nerve pains in return. However the possible solution still includes the measures we have discussed relief as these will decrease the nerve pains and discomfort. Rest is physiological compensation of the body and it can't be stopped completely though can be decreased by calcium channel blockers but these are associated with other side effects. Use of nerve blocks is still an option which can be discussed with pain medicine specialist.
