Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment in Ankeny, IA

What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is nerve damage that disrupts signals between your brain, spinal cord and the rest of your body. It most often affects the feet, legs and hands. When nerves are damaged, everyday activities like walking, sleeping and holding objects can become difficult.

Common Neuropathy Symptoms

• Numbness or "pins and needles" in the feet or hands
• Tingling, burning or electric shock pain
• Balance problems and a higher risk of falls
• Muscle weakness or cramping
• Sensitivity to touch, especially at night
• Feeling like you are walking on sponges or pebbles

What Causes Nerve Damage?

Neuropathy has many possible causes, and finding yours matters. Common contributors include diabetes and blood sugar problems, poor circulation, chemotherapy, vitamin deficiencies, autoimmune conditions, injuries and nerve compression in the spine. When a herniated disc or stenosis pinches a nerve, spinal decompression may be part of your plan.
