Neuropathy - Interventional Pain Management

Neuropathy

Neuropathy disease affects the peripheral nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. It is a condition caused by various factors, including physical trauma, infections, metabolic disorders, inherited conditions, and exposure to harmful substances. One of the most common causes of neuropathy is diabetes. Depending on the type and severity of the nerve damage, neuropathy has many symptoms. While many forms and symptoms of neuropathy are manageable with proper treatment, the effectiveness of treatment often differs from one person to another.

Symptoms of Neuropathy

Early symptoms of neuropathy may include muscle weakness, involuntary twitching, cramps, numbness, reduced sensation, or lightheadedness. These signs often begin subtly and can gradually worsen over time.
Individuals might struggle with balance, emotional strain, or disrupted sleep as the condition progresses. Some report a loss of sensation in their feet or difficulty with motor control. Others experience neuropathic pain in areas like the feet, legs, back, and hands, making everyday activities such as sitting or resting in bed uncomfortable and challenging.

How to Treat Neuropathy

The most effective approach to treating neuropathy is to target the root cause, whether it’s diabetes, a vitamin deficiency, an infection, an autoimmune disorder, or cancer. When nerve damage is mild, managing the underlying issue can often help restore function and reduce pain.
However, for many individuals, neuropathy becomes a long-term condition that requires ongoing care. While general pain medications can provide relief, long-term use of opioids may lead to serious side effects and dependency. That’s why our Neuropathy doctors in Encino focus on personalized treatment plans to manage each patient’s specific neuropathy symptoms safely and effectively.
