PHN Pain Relief in a Patch

At Non-Surgical Orthopaedics, we are now one of the only practices in the Atlanta area offering a new form of treatment for PHN, or postherpetic neuralgia (post-shingles nerve pain). Qutenza® (FDA approved November 2009) treats and manages neuropathic pain associated with a patient recovering from shingles in the form of a patch. Amazingly, a single, one-hour, localized treatment can give sufferers up to three months of relief from PHN.
