Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment in Chamblee, GA
The peripheral nervous system connects nerves from your brain and spinal cord to the rest of your body, including your arms, hands, feet, face, mouth, and internal organs. When peripheral neuropathy occurs, nerves don’t work properly because they have been damaged or destroyed.
The side effects of peripheral neuropathy can be life altering, and can prevent you from working or participating in activities you enjoy. If you’re looking for peripheral neuropathy treatment in Chamblee, GA, our chiropractors at Atlanta Spine & Wellness can evaluate your peripheral neuropathy symptoms to determine its root cause, and provide holistic treatment.
Causes and Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy can be genetic, but it can also be caused by another underlying illness or condition. Nerve damage due to diabetes is a common cause. Other chronic illnesses include various autoimmune diseases, kidney and liver disorders, and vascular and blood disorders. Physical trauma, alcoholism, infections, prescription medications, and exposure to toxins can also cause nerve damage that leads to peripheral neuropathy.
The symptoms you experience will depend upon the type of peripheral neuropathy you have – motor, sensory, or autonomic. Motor neuropathy symptoms include muscle cramps, spasms, twitching, muscle weakness, and paralysis. Sensory neuropathy symptoms include prickling or tingling sensations in limbs, numbness, reduced sensations of hot or cold, increased pain, a burning feeling, and loss of balance or coordination. Autonomic neuropathy symptoms are constipation or diarrhea, bloating, upset stomach, dizziness, rapid heart rate, sweating, and incontinence.
