What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when nerves in your peripheral nervous system become damaged or irritated. These nerves are responsible for sending messages between your body and your brain. When damaged, communication breaks down, leading to symptoms like burning pain, numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, and balance problems. For many patients, symptoms start gradually and worsen over time.

There are many potential causes of peripheral neuropathy. Diabetes is the most common, but other triggers include physical injury, repetitive stress, poor circulation, autoimmune diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and even certain medications. Regardless of the cause, untreated peripheral neuropathy can seriously affect your mobility, sleep, and overall quality of life.
