How Long Does It Take To Recover From Occipital Neuralgia?
My daughter has been diagnosed with occipital neuralgia. She was using nuvaring for 2 months. She is 21 years old. She is off nuvaring now. I am wondering how long it will take for her recovery. She has been going to physical therapy and is being treated with medication.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Occipital neuralgia is not a known side effect of the nuvaring though persons can react different to medication.
If other causes have been ruled out and it is thought to be related then the effect should stop within days/weeks.
I hope this helps
