Understanding Peripheral Neuropathy:
Peripheral Neuropathy is a condition that occurs when damage to the peripheral nerves disrupts the communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
This often leads to a range of symptoms that primarily affect the extremities.
Common Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy:
Muscle Weakness: Impaired motor nerves can hinder physical movement and coordination.
Sensory Issues: Numbness, tingling, burning sensations, and pain—often more noticeable at night.
Loss of Proprioception: Affects balance and spatial awareness.
Autonomic Dysfunction: Impacts involuntary body functions, such as heart rate, digestion, and blood pressure regulation.
Causes of Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral Neuropathy can be triggered by a variety of factors, including:
Physical injuries
Systemic diseases (e.g., diabetes)
Nutritional deficiencies
Vascular problems
Repetitive stress
Exposure to toxins
