Can laser hair removal on the back of the neck cause nerve damage?

MomChi2020Mar 26, 2019

I’ve had a lot of laser hair removal - bikini line, underarms, full legs. Had first treatment on the back of the neck. This was extremely painful. No burns, just alot of pain during the laser pulses. Now one side feels weird, a little tingly down my arm and leg, same day as treatment. I’ve read a lot about it, all answers say it cannot cause nerve damage. Could it just be from the pain earlier that radiated down? Or is Maybe I shouldn’t get further treatments in this area? Thanks
