Pain is caused when an external stimuli disturbs the regular functioning of the physical or internal body. For example, when someone slaps or when a wound is formed after falling down.
The following are some of the ways of managing pains:
1) Medication: Proper medication with drugs such as pain killers are affective as they relieve pain. Eg. Paracetamol.
2) Hypnosis: For those people who can be hypnotized, this method helps them during the process of which the presence of pain will not be felt. It is done by diverting attention to a trance where pain becomes secondary or the pain will not be felt at all.
3) Low voltage currents: This can be another effective way of pain management. When low voltage currents are given to the part where pain exists, it kills the cells which are creating the pain.
4) Surgery: Surgery is the method in which the painful part of the body is cut and thrown off after operating. This is however, the last method to be resorted to, for pain management.
5) Voluntary Attention-Diversion: Another method for managing pain is to divert our thoughts and perception that concentrate of the pain and substitute one's attention with other pleasant thoughts and perception.
There are other methods as well in physiotherapy and exercise techniques for managing pain.

Can neurontin help occipital neuralgia?
Seems to have worked like a charm for me. Old whiplash (20 years ago) with re-whiplash 4 years ago when a ladder fell straight down had left me with daily occipital pain for past 4 years often accompanied by severe headaches. Tried physical therapy, accupuncture, chiropractic, massage therapy, heat, swimming, muscle relaxers, Topamax (hellish drug!) and finally neurontin. I have not felt this good for 4 years! No pain right now. Has only been about 10 days, but I will be SO happy if this continues to work so well. I feel like I might actually get might life back.

What causes tingling sensation on the side of one's head?
Hi Louise Yes, it's quite normal. Stress alone can do this (even give you tingles in the extremeties of your body) and also a pinched nerve in the neck area can cause this. Try this little test: Right above your shoulders (on each side of the neck) press down and hold. If the tingling in your scalp doesn't go away then move your fingers up behind your neck and press forward. It should go away. If this is the case see your Chiropractor and you should get back to "no tingles" fairly quickly. I am sure you have had your hair washed and scalp massaged along with it by your hairdresser. Feels great! It's amazing how tight your scalp can be from every day stress and you don't realize it until your hairdresser uses those magic fingers of hers. Marcy
