Patient's question:
My grandmother has peripheral neuropathy. What are the consequences of peripheral neuropathy? Is it possible that severe peripheral neuropathy could lead to a breakdown? What are the reasons for this breakdown? Is there a way to gradually alleviate this condition? Please give me some advice from a doctor.Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no particularly effective method for treating peripheral neuropathy. Some medications can be used, and they can be combined with acupuncture, massage, and acupressure treatment. This can provide some relief from symptoms. In terms of diet, it is important to focus on a light diet and also undergo regular health check-ups at the hospital to recheck blood pressure or other conditions. It is best to have a cranial CT scan to rule out other diseases that may be causing the inflammation of peripheral neuropathy.
