Peripheral Neuropathy Specialist

WHAT IS PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY?

Peripheral neuropathy describes a group of conditions that affect the nerves that carry messages throughout your peripheral nervous system, which is the area outside of your brain and spinal cord. A condition in this category may result from infections, injuries, toxin exposure, genetic disorders, or metabolic issues

Dr. Hancock believes that peripheral neuropathy is a serious condition that requires prompt medical care. When left untreated, your risk of falls, fractures, and extended hospital stays increases dramatically.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY? 

The symptoms of peripheral neuropathy vary depending on the severity of nerve damage. Common indications include:

• Stabbing or pruning pain
• Weakness
• Tingling sensations
• Restless legs
• Cramping in the hands or feet
• Difficulty sleeping from foot pain
• Burning sensations

As the condition progresses, you might also experience problems with balance and mobility. Your feet or hands may also become sensitive to touch.

WHAT CAUSES PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY?

The most common cause of peripheral neuropathy is diabetes — more than 50% of people with diabetes develop some form of neuropathy. Vitamin deficiencies also cause peripheral neuropathy, as can autoimmune disorders and certain medications.
