More than 20 million Americans are believed to suffer from some form of peripheral neuropathy — and the true number may be even higher, as many cases go undiagnosed or misidentified. At Huntsville Pain Management, we begin with a detailed screening by a qualified provider to ensure accurate evaluation and a personalized treatment plan. This step is critical in identifying any urgent issues that may require immediate medical attention.
Neuropathy is a nerve-related condition that typically affects the extremities, such as the hands and feet. It may develop suddenly (acute), progress gradually (chronic), and can be either temporary or permanent. Causes range from genetic factors and illnesses to injuries, medication side effects, or unknown origins (idiopathic).
The symptoms vary but often include numbness, burning, stinging sensations, muscle weakness, balance issues, and even changes to the skin, hair, or nails. Some patients also experience spontaneous muscle twitches (fasciculations) or painful cramps.
Many individuals begin experiencing relief before completing their full course of treatment.
