A member asked:
Hi, the pain i have is excruciating, and it's along the peroneal nerve in my leg, i did not suffer any injury, can physical therapy fix the damage?

Peroneal nerve pain: It is vital to find out the cause of the pain. Physical therapy may help, but first things first. See your doctor about what is the root cause of your pain. Then decide on treatment.
