Specializes in Pain Management

Neural therapy: There are doctors in oregon that do neural therapy. They need to inject the nerves with local anesthetic to enable them to quiet down and get release from some of the scars that are probably causing the pain.

Medication: Try a drug for "nerve pain" such as Lyrica (pregabalin) or gralise.
