The persistent numbness in your hand is likely due to nerve damage. While Oxetol tablet helps manage nerve-related symptoms, other medical options exist. Your doctor might consider adjusting your treatment to other nerve-pain medications, such as gabapentin, pregabalin, or duloxetine, which can sometimes be more effective for numbness. Additionally, physical and occupational therapy are highly beneficial for improving hand function and sensation. Non-invasive treatments like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) or acupuncture may also provide relief. Please consult your physician or a neurologist to safely discuss these alternatives and tailor a plan specifically for you.

Post-stroke numbness occurs when the brain's sensory pathways are damaged. Your medication, oxcarbazepine, helps by calming overactive nerves. Other medical options to discuss with your doctor include alternative nerve-stabilising medications like gabapentin or pregabalin. However, medication alone is rarely enough. Highly effective non-drug treatments include targeted physical and occupational therapy, mirror therapy, and constraint-induced movement therapy to help retrain your brain (neuroplasticity) to regain motor function. Sensory re-education exercises can also assist in recovering touch. Please consult your neurologist or a physical therapist to customise a combined plan of medication and rehabilitation for the best results.
