Q: Which is the best method of treatment for phantom sensation?
A:There is no single best drug. The best drug has to be found for each patient. Generally, drugs which are conventionally used for epilepsy and depression are tried because these drugs have other actions besides what they were originally marketed for. Recently, biofeedback and in some cases deep brain stimulation have been tried with reasonable success.
