What Causes Nerve Pain All Over The Body?

My wife has struggled with back pain for 8 years. Now she is suffering from nerve pain through out her body. She is 56 years old. Having difficulty walking and has a very poor quality of life. Any thought of what type of doctor we should talk too. We have been working with pain management but it seems to be getting worse instead of better. Thank you

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should consult neurophysician for your wife.
After the age of 50 years, some brain diseases like alziemers, parkinsons, motor neuropathy etc can cause similar kind of generalized symptoms.
Another possibility is vitamin b 12 deficiency.
So consult neurophysician and get done clinical examination, MRI brain and vitamin B12 level today rule out these possibilities.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.
