When you experience numbness, tingling, or pain in your hands or feet, it may be time to seek treatment for peripheral neuropathy. This condition is caused by damage to the nerves that carry signals from your brain to the rest of your body. Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by a variety of factors, including diabetes, infection, trauma, and exposure to toxins.
Treatment for peripheral neuropathy generally focuses on relieving symptoms and maintaining nerve function. If you have diabetes, keeping your blood sugar levels under control is essential for preventing further nerve damage. In some cases, medications may be prescribed to help relieve pain or promote nerve healing.
Physical therapy can also be helpful in managing symptoms and preserving nerve function. If you are experiencing numbness, tingling, or pain in your hands or feet, talk to your doctor about whether peripheral neuropathy treatment may be right for you.
