NEUROPATHY PAIN?

Neuropathy in Lakeville is a condition in which an individual experiences pain, numbness, or weakness in the hands or feet resulting from nerve damage. This nerve damage can happen in many ways. For example; the nerve can become obstructed when it exits the spine resulting in damage downstream. It can also be damaged anywhere along the path of the nerve, such as in your forearm, resulting in pain in your hands.

The traditional treatment of nerve pain is to simply prescribe medication that usually blocks the way our brain perceives pain. This does nothing for the actual cause of the neuropathy. It is like taking out the bulb out of your dashboard in your car that reads “low oil level”. While it does nothing for the actual cause of the light being on (low oil level) it solves the problem, right? wrong.

This is why it is crucial to figure out the cause of your neuropathy. Nerves pass through and next to a great number of structures in your body. If just one thing is putting abnormal pressure directly on that nerve, you will have consequences. These consequences might appear in the form of neuropathy.

Symptoms of Neuropathy:

• Loss of hot or cold sensation
• Pins and needles feeling in your feet
• Tingling or burning
• Loss of feeling
• Feet that are painful to touch
• Restless legs
• Feeling of ants crawling on your legs
• Difficulty sleeping because of foot pain
• Burning Pain
• Sharp Electric Pain
• Numbness
• Leg Cramps
• Numbness and Tingling in your feet
• Difficulty sleeping
• Pain while you walk

Is Medication the Answer for Neuropathy?

Medication can be very helpful for a number of things.  The problem is that medication is not generally designed to correct the cause of the problem.  Common sense will tell you that if your treatment is not designed to correct the true problem, you’re likely to have disappointing results.  In some cases medication can actually cause new problems to develop in the body because of the many side effects.  We know so much about the human body today.  It’s time to move beyond treatments that mask your symptoms.

Is Neuropathy Stealing Your Happiness?

If you have neuropathy you understand how it can make you feel.  Simple things like driving your car or taking a walk with a loved one can become painful and difficult tasks.  When you start to lose the simple things in your life it can truly steal your happiness away.  Many of the patients we meet are in a state of slight depression, because they are not able to do the things they love.  If you’re in this position take action.  This is a problem that you can begin to change today.
