Neuralgia refers to sharp, shooting, or burning pain that arises from damaged or irritated nerves. It can affect cranial, spinal, or peripheral nerves, with common forms including trigeminal neuralgia, postherpetic neuralgia, and occipital neuralgia. This chronic neuropathic condition disrupts quality of life and poses challenges in diagnosis and management.

The Neuralgia session focuses on understanding the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and therapeutic approaches for neuropathic pain syndromes. Researchers explore how nerve injury, demyelination, and abnormal signaling lead to hypersensitivity and persistent pain.

At the Neuralgia Conference, neurologists, pain specialists, and researchers discuss breakthroughs in diagnostics, pharmacological management, and surgical interventions. Topics include central sensitization, neuroinflammation, and neuromodulation through spinal-cord and peripheral-nerve stimulation.

This session emphasizes the importance of precision diagnostics, integrating neuroimaging and electrophysiology to localize affected pathways. Attendees will learn about multimodal therapies combining pharmacotherapy, physiotherapy, and cognitive interventions.

Recent discoveries in Pain Mechanisms highlight molecular targets such as sodium channels, TRPV receptors, and cytokine pathways—paving the way for personalized analgesic development.
