Neuropathy

Have you been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy, or do you suspect you may have it? The discomfort caused by this challenging condition — from numbness and tingling to burning or stabbing pain — can range in severity. Don’t ignore it any longer. Our clinic offers a range of safe, effective pain relief treatments that can stop your condition from getting any worse, and in many cases, reverse it altogether.



What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

What is Peripheral NeuropathyPeripheral neuropathy results from a disruption in the communication between the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

Throughout our body, the peripheral nerves make up a complex network connecting our skin, muscles, and organs to the brain via the spinal cord. From the spinal cord, peripheral nerves form lines reaching out through the body known as “dermatomes.” When damage occurs to a nerve of a particular dermatome, the brain's correct messages are no longer able to reach the affected area.

The lack of proper communication with the brain can result in unusual, often painful sensations. Patients describe their symptoms in a variety of ways, typically including:

  • Odd feelings of freezing or burning
  • Tingling and numbness starting in the hands and feet then spreading to the arms and legs
  • A throbbing sensation
  • Sharp, jabbing pain
  • Sensitivity to touch
  • Weakness or paralysis

All of these symptoms can lead to a decrease in coordination. In cases involving the autonomic nerves, a person may also experience a decrease in their ability to tolerate heat, problems with digestion, bladder issues, or blood pressure changes cause lightheadedness.
