Neuropathy

Neuropathy happens when nerves get damaged or stop working properly. It often starts in the hands or feet, but it can spread to other parts of the body. You might feel numbness, pain, tingling, weakness — or a mix of all the above.

There’s a long list of things that can cause or worsen neuropathy:

• Diabetes

• Injuries or trauma

• Autoimmune diseases

• Exposure to toxins or chemicals

• Kidney or liver problems

• Poor circulation (vascular issues)

• Certain medications

• Alcohol abuse

• Vitamin deficiencies

This condition is also known as peripheral neuropathy because it mostly affects the nerves outside your brain and spinal cord.

Common Neuropathy Symptoms

Neuropathy doesn’t show up the same way in everyone. Some people get hit hard with a bunch of symptoms. Others only notice one or two. Here’s what to look out for:

• Numbness or tingling in your hands or feet

• Burning, stabbing, or electric-like pain

• Muscle weakness or twitching

• Loss of coordination or balance

• Cramping or spasms

• Trouble moving arms or legs

• Low blood pressure or irregular heartbeat

• Digestive problems, nausea, or constipation

• Dizziness or fainting spells

• Bladder or urinary issues
