A member asked:
My mum had a major stroke 2 years ago she is experiencing a burning sensation in her effected side what does this mean?

Pain after stroke: There are a number of painful syndromes associated with strokes, and some could be termed "deafferentation syndromes". Treatment is often very successful, and many neurologists would use gabapentin or Lyrica (pregabalin). But make sure that diagnosis is fully confirmed first.
