Locating the source of nerve pain can be like chasing a ghost, but now doctors are finding a way to narrow down and diagnose nerve pain origin, giving new hope to patients. It is estimated that 15 ...

An electromyography, EMG, test might help narrow down what is causing pain. ... Arthritis and nerve pain are both common sources of discomfort, but they stem from different causes.

For more information on nerve conduction velocity testing and EMG testing, do not hesitate to contact the clinic. Thank you. Originally Published: March 8, 2021 at 4:00 PM MST ...

A tool called electromyography, or EMG, can help solve that problem. When nerve conduction and EMG are performed together, skin electrodes measure signals sent along the nerve. then, a very small ...

“We did the nerve conduction test and confirmed that she had carpal tunnel on both sides. She hadn’t completely ruined the nerve over 30 or 40 years. It still was alive and intact.

Nerve conduction studies can explain the cause of acute or chronic pain by identifying areas of nerve injury. The test is performed by placing two electrodes over the specific area to be studied ...
