What Causes Pain In The Toe Radiating Up To The Neck?

What are the Doctors meaning by Nerve Damage . They ve done an MRI & an EMG but the results are not back yet. The pain began in the right, large toe & has progressed through the leg, up the side of the thigh, across the back of the hip, up the back, & now to the base of the neck. I do not currently have an account, nor have I ever had one!

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be a neuropathic pain.

As a first line management you can take drugs like gabapentin for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persists better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
