What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?
​Peripheral neuropathy involves damage to nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. It often affects the feet and legs, although symptoms can also occur in the hands and arms.
Symptoms may include:
-
Burning, tingling, or “pins and needles.”
-
Numbness or reduced sensation.
-
Sharp, shooting, or electric-like pain.
-
Sensitivity to light touch.
-
Muscle weakness or cramping.
-
Difficulty with balance or walking.
These symptoms can have several causes. An evaluation is important to understand what may be contributing to them and which care options are appropriate.
Understanding the Cause Matters
​Peripheral neuropathy may be associated with diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, certain medications or chemotherapy, nerve injuries, autoimmune conditions, and other medical disorders.
​
Sometimes the cause remains unknown.
Numbness and tingling can also come from other conditions, including pressure on a nerve. Symptoms alone do not establish a diagnosis.
​
Identifying and addressing an underlying cause is an important part of care. Depending on your history and examination, further testing or evaluation by your primary care provider or a specialist may be recommended.
​
Frequently Asked Questions
Can neuropathy be cured?
The outlook depends on the cause and extent of nerve damage. Some causes can be treated, while other forms require ongoing management. Our office does not promise a cure or reversal of nerve damage.
​
Can you help if I have diabetes?
An evaluation can help determine whether supportive care is appropriate. Diabetes management, foot care, and follow-up with your medical provider remain essential.
​
How many treatments will I need?
Recommendations depend on your findings, goals, and response. Dr. Boley will discuss a proposed plan and reassess whether it is helping.
​
Should I stop taking my neuropathy medication?
No. Discuss medication changes with your prescribing clinician. Do not stop or reduce medication because you are starting care at our office.
​
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by service and plan. Ask our team to review the proposed services and expected costs before beginning treatment.
