Title:

Basic Differences Between Peripheral And Diabetic Neuropathy

Description:

Peripheral Neuropathy and Diabetic Neuropathy, though similar in symptoms, have distinct differences. Diabetic neuropathy is brought on by persistently elevated blood sugar levels, whereas peripheral neuropathy is defined as damage to the nerves that are not part of the brain or spinal cord. Tingling, numbness, and discomfort in different body areas are among the symptoms. Diabetic neuropathy develops over time with persistent diabetes, while peripheral neuropathy progresses according to the underlying reason. In order to treat, both the underlying cause and symptoms must be addressed. In the USA, neuropathic pain can be effectively managed with chiropractic treatment, such as that given by Dr. Chris Garner at Grand Strand Health and Wellness. This type of care can bring relief and aid in the healing process. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

  • Peripheral Neuropathy and Diabetic Neuropathy are
    almost similar regarding illness and symptoms.
    Both disorders affect the peripheral nerves.
    Peripheral and diabetic neuropathy are distinct
    in their etiology and symptoms. So, they have
    some nuances that only a few people
    know. Chiropractic Treatment can manage the
    symptoms of neuropathy. Chiropractors use some
    definite techniques that give relief
    from Neuropathic Pain effectively.
  • If you also need Peripheral Neuropathy

Definition
  • Damage to or dysfunction of the peripheral
    nerves, which are the nerves that are not located
    inside the brain and spinal cord, is referred to
    as peripheral neuropathy.
  • One particular form of peripheral neuropathy that
    affects people with diabetes is diabetic
    neuropathy.

  • Causes
  • Several factors can contribute to peripheral
    neuropathy, including physical trauma,
    infections, autoimmune conditions, exposure to
    toxins, and some drugs. Idiopathic refers to a
    condition for which there is no known etiology.
  • Long-term elevated blood sugar levels primarily
    cause diabetic neuropathy because they can cause
    long-term nerve damage. It is a side effect of
    diabetes.
  • If you find any of these symptoms and doubt to
    have Peripheral Neuropathy or Diabetic
    Neuropathy, then you should consult with any
    chiropractor for managing Neuropathic Pain. If
    you opt for Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment in
    the USA, contact Dr Chris Garner from Grand
    Strand Health and Wellness.

Symptoms
  • Peripheral neuropathy symptoms include tingling,
    burning, numbness, weakness, and pain in the
    affected areas. It can affect any body region,
    although the hands, feet, and legs are the most
    frequently affected.
  • The kind and location of the damaged nerves
    determine the diabetic neuropathy symptoms.
    Numbness, tingling, discomfort, muscle weakness,
    lack of coordination, digestive problems, and
    sexual dysfunction are typical symptoms.

Progression
  • Peripheral neuropathy can develop gradually over
    time, and the symptoms could worsen if the
    underlying cause is not treated.
  • The chance of developing diabetic neuropathy
    rises with the duration of diabetes and with
    inadequate blood sugar management. Diabetic
    neuropathy typically manifests gradually over
    time.

Treatment
  • Peripheral neuropathy is treated by addressing
    the underlying cause, symptom relief, and
    stopping future nerve damage. It may entail using
    painkiller drugs, physical therapy, lifestyle
    modifications, and treating any underlying
    illnesses.
  • Blood sugar levels must be managed for diabetic
    neuropathy by medication, nutrition, and
    exercise. Doctors may also advise physical
    therapy, lifestyle changes, and painkiller drugs
    to reduce symptoms and stop the illness from
    worsening.

Bottomline
  • Diabetic Neuropathy is a type of peripheral
    neuropathy that develops as a complication of
    diabetes due to high blood sugar levels. In
    contrast, Peripheral Neuropathy is a general term
    referring to nerve damage in the peripheral
    nervous system. If you want Chiropractic
