Notalgia paresthetica is a rare nerve compression. From the Greek word noton, meaning "back," and algia, meaning "pain," "notalgia paresthetica" implies that symptoms of burning pain, itching, and/or numbness in the localized region between the spinous processes of T2 through T6 and the medial border of the scapula constitute a nerve compression syndrome. The compressed nerve is the dorsal branch of the spinal nerve. It is compressed by the paraspinous muscles and fascia against the transverse process of these spinal segments. This is the first report of symptomatic relief by decompression of this nerve.
感觉异常性背疼是一种罕见的神经压迫症。该病症源于希腊语单词 noton（意指“背部”）和 algia（意指“疼痛”），表示在 T2 到 T6 的棘突之间和肩胛内侧缘之间的局部区域出现烧灼感、瘙痒和/或麻木的症状，构成了一种神经压迫综合征。受压的神经是脊神经的背侧支。它被棘旁肌和筋膜压迫在这些脊柱节段的横突上。这是首例通过这种神经减压来缓解症状的报告。
