Diagnosing neuropathy should of course be conducted by a medical professional. However, patients can get a better idea whether they might have it or not by looking over the most common symptoms of neuropathy – to see if those symptoms line up with what they are experiencing. They can also benefit from considering causes of neuropathic pain that might put them in a high-risk group. Finally, it is specifically worth looking at the differences between peripheral neuropathic pain and multiple sclerosis since the two conditions are so similar and, hence, often misdiagnosed.
20 million people in the United States experience neuropathy related pain or discomfort. As with many diseases, your food choices can have a big impact on your pain levels and the disease in general.
Cold laser therapy treatment can be powerful when used to speed the healing of a painful area. Also called low-level laser therapy, soft laser biostimulation, photobiomodulation, and low-power laser therapy (LPLT), this treatment uses a device to deliver low levels of light to problematic areas. It is often used in conjunction with other treatment approaches to facilitate healing and recovery from soft-tissue and joint conditions.
When you are experiencing chronic pain, it is critical to determine whether neuropathic pain is present. Typically, pain arises when damage or an injury occurs within the body, leading to the nerves transmitting a signal. In the case of neuropathy, though, the nerves themselves have experienced damage.
