The wide range of symptoms associated with neuropathy, also known as peripheral neuropathy, are a reflection of the fact that it can be brought on by a wide range of illnesses and disorders that destroy peripheral nerves.
What is neuropathy?
- Neuropathy symptoms can range from temporary to permanent numbness, tingling, or burning sensations, increased sensitivity to touch, pain, muscle weakness or wasting, paralysis, dysfunction in organs or glands, or impairment to urination depending on the cause and patient.
- During a nerve conduction test (NCS), the speed and strength of the nerve signal are assessed by placing electrodes—small metal wires that stimulate your nerves—on your skin.
- Symptoms frequently include a progressive change in feeling as well as foot pain and weakness (and less commonly the hands).
- A loss of sensation in the affected areas is a possibility as the neuropathy worsens.
