Peripheral Neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy is nerve damage to the peripheral nervous system (outside the Central Nervous System- or spine region). Causes of peripheral neuropathy include:

  • Physical injury from trauma, such as from a car accident, sports injury, a fall, or even medical procedures.  
  • Vascular and blood problems that decrease oxygen supplies to the peripheral nerves, such as diabetes, smoking, and narrowing of the arteries from high blood pressure.
  • Infections that attack the nerve tissue.
  • Chemo therapy drugs.
  • Cancers and tumors.
  • Nutritional malnourishment.
  • Kidney and liver disorders that cause toxin build-up.

Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy typically begin in the toes & feet. Those symptoms can include numbness and altered sensations. If the cause of the condition is unknown (idiopathic), then an MRI may be necessary to look for disc occlusion. Knowledge about the condition is important. Knowing that peripheral neuropathy increases the risk of falls can lead a person to be more careful and help prevent a fall. At Chiropractic Healing Center, we decide the regions of the SUBLUXATION – misalignment in the spine region, while treating these pathophysiologies with Chiropractic Care to remove the nerve interference. Chiropractors are leaders in both disc & neuropathy treatment.
