How is peripheral neuropathy treated?

Patient's question:

One year ago, the skin on the right leg became numb. Now it's cold and painful. Test results: An electromyography was performed, revealing damage to many nerves. Past treatment and effectiveness: Took many nerve medications, drank beer regularly. What kind of help is desired: Another diagnosis.

Doctor's answer:

If you are suffering from nerve damage, first you need to understand that nerve damage repair is relatively slow. Medications that nourish nerves need to be taken in a standardized manner, followed by treatment according to the prescribed course, and combined with traditional Chinese therapies such as acupuncture and moxibustion. Additionally, in daily life, patients should maintain a balanced intake of nutrients, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen the body, and keep a cheerful mood to enhance physical fitness and accelerate the recovery process.
