  • Millions of people across the world are
    victims to a life threatening health issue named
    Diabetes. It not only restricts you from
    munching few of your favorite food items but also
    plays a harsh role in bringing you life to a
    standstill state by inflicting damage to various
    body organs like eyes, kidney, heart and so on.
    Adding on to the complications resulting from
    diabetes, you have peripheral neuropathy.
    According to reports, about 70 of diabetic
    patients develop this issue which turns up
    causing damage to all the peripheral nerves of
    the body. Talking of the remedy,
    though peripheral neuropathy treatment is a
    challenging task taking time to get all the
    damaged nerves repaired but it is not completely
    incurable.

Symptoms And Treatment Of Peripheral Neuropathy
  • The treatment that you need depends upon the
    symptoms and the condition that your body is
    presently encountering. Common symptoms that a
    patient is likely to experience are numbness,
    weakness, tingling or burning sensation to an
    extreme extent. These symptoms pop up without any
    warning and at times are constant but dont
    adhere to any pattern in particular. Peripheral
    neuropathy can cause damage to any part of the
    body but it is the legs and feet which are mostly
    involved. To fix the issue effectively, it is
    recommended to reach out a physician offering
    diabetic neuropathy treatment.

Some Additions To Your Diet
  • While there are some creams and medications which
    will give you short term relief from the pain you
    end up with this nervous issue, but making some
    alteration to your diet is looked upon as a
    method that will help you in the long run as
    well. In fact, change in diet is considered as
    the best peripheral neuropathy treatment. Here is
    a brief on the diet you must follow
  • gtMake sure to enhance the amount of vitamin
    supplements in your diet, mostly vitamin B12. Any
    deficiency of the same will trigger the symptoms
    of peripheral neuropathy. Though the amount of
    vitamin B12 needed in the blood is yet to be
    ascertained, but its importance cannot be
    overlooked. In case you end up taking too much of
    this vitamin, worry not. It is harmless.
  • gtVitamin B complex is another supplement that you
    can take for reducing the symptoms hitched to
    peripheral neuropathy as it is seen that
    deficiency of any sort of water soluble folic
    acid, vitamin B can result to the same. But be
    cautious when you are taking pyridoxine or
    vitamin B6 as large dosage of the same can result
    into neuropathy.
  • gtVitamin E and D are two other essential vitamin
    supplements which adults undergoing diabetic
    neuropathy treatment should take. Most people are
    found suffering from the deficiency of vitamin D
    but are unaware of the same. As per studies, any
    deficiency of these two vitamins can lead to
    different types of neuro muscular symptoms like
    muscle weakness, pain along with peripheral
    neuropathy.
