Possible Causes of Neuropathy

Sometimes when only one part of our body is signaling pain, we assume it is fine to ignore. However, you shouldn’t ignore it because it could be part of a larger problem. This is often the case with neuropathy, which can include tingling, pain, numbness, weakness, a limited range of motion, and a prickling sensation in the legs or feet. Neuropathy may indicate the onset of an autoimmune disorder, nutritional imbalance, or diabetes.  

Out of the 20 million Americans affected by neuropathy, 15-18 million attribute it to diabetes. Another condition that is aggravated by diabetic nerve damage is meralgia paresthetica. If you stand for long periods, wear tight clothing, struggle with obesity, are pregnant, or have been involved in an accident, the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve can become compressed. This added compression is known to damage the surrounding nerves, causing severe discomfort.

Chiropractic Treatment for Neuropathy type Symptoms

Chiropractic care focuses on disorders of the nervous system as well as the musculoskeletal system. Because the peripheral nerves in our bodies branch from the brain and spinal cord, an imbalance of pressure can cause the legs or other limbs to go numb, tingle, or be in chronic pain. This can be reduced by chiropractic treatments over time. Receiving these treatments can even reduce the degree of nerve damage caused by neuropathy.
