How to check for peripheral neuropathy?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which is greatly affecting my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with a neurology department. How is peripheral neuropathy diagnosed?

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are caused by inflammation of the peripheral nerves in the limbs, which may lead to recurring pain, numbness, or electric-like sensations at the inflamed areas. It may also cause motor disorders. In the early stages of this condition, it is advisable to visit a hospital for nerve nutrition treatment, in addition to anti-inflammatory medications. During daily life, it is important to pay attention to appropriate exercise and ensure adequate vitamin intake.
