Causes and Symptoms of Neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy is one type of neuropathy Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn gets to diagnose and care for in Ashburn neck and back pain patients. Peripheral neuropathy develops out of damage to peripheral nerves. These nerves are part of the nervous system that delivers information from your brain to your spinal cord (which is the central nervous system) and then out to the rest of the body. That is how peripheral neuropathy may go all the way to your toes and fingers. It may be caused by unexpected trauma or injury or by repetitive stress owing to compression type injuries from performing certain activities repeatedly that irritate and inflame joints, tendons and muscles.  Peripheral neuropathy is often described by Ashburn chiropractic patients as a tingling sensation or sharp, stabbing pain or a numbness or a burning sensation in the hands or feet or as a clumsiness that has you dropping things constantly. (1) Whatever its sensation, peripheral neuropathy may be unsettling, may leave if the peripheral nervous system has the opportunity to heal itself after injury or the source of the peripheral neuropathy is discovered and treated, or may be helped heal. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn comes in here to identify the source of the neuropathy and share Ashburn chiropractic care to take care of it and relieve the irritated nerves.

Healing Ability of Nerves in Neuropathy

Interestingly, peripheral nerves have a remarkable ability to regenerate themselves after injury. It takes time. One author explains that these nerves regenerate a millimeter a day (about an inch a month), so if the damaged nerve extends from your spine to your toes, it may take a while. (3) Researchers state that good but incomplete recovery comes about over 2 to 3 years for most patients with sciatic neuropathy (due to spinal nerve compression). Moderate improvement of the symptoms happens in 30% of sciatic neuropathy patients by 1 year, 50% by 2 years and 75% by 3 years. (4) In a review of published research concerning neuropathic pain, researchers record that 37% of chronic low back pain (that lasting more than 3 months) cases and 41% of soft tissue syndromes (like ligament or muscle tears) experience neuropathic pain.
