Neuropathic pain after SCI is real, common, and often dismissed or undertreated. Finding what helps is usually trial-and-error, and hearing what others actually take — and what side effects they navigated — can save you months.
See our pain management guide and spinal cord stimulators. Then tell us what's on your list.
