Neuropathic pain and pain that has a predominant neuropathic component can be difficult to diagnose in primary care. Several screening questionnaires that incorporate patient symptoms and signs have been developed, and some are supplemented with simple bedside clinical tests for nerve dysfunction. These tools should enable a more rapid and confident diagnosis by the nonspecialist and the earlier start of appropriate treatment.
在初级医疗保健中，神经性疼痛以及以神经性成分为主的疼痛可能难以诊断。已经开发了几种纳入患者症状和体征的筛查问卷，有些还辅以简单的床边神经功能障碍临床检查。这些工具应能使非专科医生更快速、自信地做出诊断，并更早开始适当治疗。
