Understanding the Causes and Treatment Options

As a neuropathy health clinic, we understand the challenges that come with living with neuropathy. It can be a debilitating condition that affects the peripheral nervous system and causes a range of symptoms that impact a person's quality of life. There are several types of neuropathy, each with its own causes, symptoms, and treatment options, but in this blog post we will explore Peripheral Neuropathy.

What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is the most common type of neuropathy, primarily affecting the nerves in the arms, legs, hands, and feet. It can be caused by various factors, including diabetes, chemotherapy, infections, and autoimmune disorders.

What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is the most common type of neuropathy, primarily affecting the nerves in the arms, legs, hands, and feet. It can be caused by various factors, including diabetes, chemotherapy, infections, and autoimmune disorders.

Causes of Peripheral Neuropathy:

Diabetes: High blood sugar levels associated with diabetes can lead to nerve damage over time, resulting in peripheral neuropathy. Proper management of blood sugar levels is crucial in minimizing the risk and progression of the condition.

Infections: Viral or bacterial infections, such as Lyme disease, shingles, and HIV/AIDS, can directly affect the peripheral nerves, resulting in neuropathic symptoms. Early detection and prompt treatment of these infections are vital to prevent long-term nerve damage.

Autoimmune disorders: Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus can cause the immune system to attack healthy nerve tissue, leading to peripheral neuropathy. Specialized management is necessary to address the underlying autoimmune response and mitigate nerve damage.
