The most likely cause of a throbbing nerve pain in the head is neuropathic pain. For neuropathic pain, the following drugs can be taken to treat it: First, gabapentin, carbamazepine, pregabalin and other drugs, which have a peculiar effect on neuropathic pain. Secondly, you can take nerve-nourishing drugs, such as Micropod, vitamin B1, etc. These drugs have some auxiliary therapeutic effects on relieving neuralgia. In addition, for neuralgia, it is necessary to do relevant examinations, such as MRI, to find out what causes neuropathic pain, so that the disease can be prevented from being missed or misdiagnosed.
