Is There an Effective Treatment for Peripheral Neuropathy?

The Peripheral Nerves are the nerves that connect the brain and the spinal column to our muscles, internal organs and skin. These nerves control muscle movement and pain.

Peripheral Neuropathy can be caused by several reasons:

• Nutritional or vitamin deficiencies – often a lack of  B Vitamins
• Alcoholism can be a contributing factor
• Tumors that can press on the nerves
• Autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus
• Traumatic injuries
• Trauma or repeated pressure on nerves such as typing on a keyboard
• Exposure to toxins
• Metabolic problems
• Diabetes
• Cancer
• Statin Drug use

Its symptoms may include:

• Pain
• Tingling sensation
• Burning sensation
• Biting, stabbing or shooting pains
• Weakness in the arms and legs
• Loss of sensation in the feet, ankles or toes
• Some symptoms get worse at night
