My doctor tell me I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet. Peripheral neuropathy refers to loss of peripheral nerve function. Symptoms usually are tingling sensations, numbness, and loss of function, pain, and muscle weakness. There are many different causes of peripheral neuropathy.
Effective treatment needs to focus on addressing the cause.
For example, the most frequent form of peripheral neuropathy is due to diabetes. If diabetes were the cause, I would recommend a high potency multiple vitamin and mineral formula. Particularly important nutrients are vitamin B6 and magnesium. Supplementation with these nutrients appears to offer significant protection against the development of diabetic neuropathy and offers some benefit in improving nerve function as well. In an attempt to deal with the pain and other symptoms regardless of the cause of the peripheral neuropathy, I would recommend topically applied capsaicin.
