Can paralysed people feel pain?

Yes, actually they can sometimes feel a different kind of nerve pain even if they can't move. Just like managing my BP needs regular checkups and a calm lifestyle, managing this needs proper medical supervision. Regular doctor visits are very important to track any such sensations safely.

I remember panicking so much when my uncle went through this and said he felt a burning pain in his legs. The doctor explained to us that it's phantom or neuropathic pain and it is actually quite common. Don't worry too much but definitely let their doctor know so they can make them comfortable.

It depends entirely on whether it is complete or incomplete paralysis, which only tests like MRI or EMG can show. Since these nerve tests and specialist consultations can get quite expensive, it's better to plan your budget and check with a government hospital or a trust hospital first. They have great doctors and it will save you a lot of money.

Short answer is yes, they absolutely can. It's called neuropathic pain and it's basically the brain receiving faulty signals from damaged nerves. Don't waste time asking around on online forums, just get them to a solid neurologist who can prescribe the right nerve medication.

Bro, my cousin had a major accident and lost sensation in his lower body but he still gets intense nerve pain sometimes. It sounds weird but the doc said the damaged nerves still send weird signals to the brain. Definitely get a doctor to check it out, don't ignore it.

It is so tough to see our loved ones go through this, my heart goes out to you. Usually, home remedies or simple massages won't help with this kind of internal nerve pain and can sometimes even hurt them if we aren't careful. Please don't try any self-treatment at home and let their main specialist handle the pain management.

From what I have seen in my neighborhood, yes, some people do feel a tingling or burning sensation. The best practical thing you can do is keep a daily log of when they seem uncomfortable or mention pain. Take this simple note to your next doctor visit so the doc can adjust their daily medicines easily.
