Patient's question:
My older brother works on construction sites. Last week, he started complaining about shoulder joint and neck pain. We accompanied him for a thorough examination, and the doctor said my brother has peripheral neuropathy, which can be relieved with medication. I am here to consult about what medications are effective for peripheral neuropathy. I am looking for recommendations for good-quality drugs.Doctor's answer:
Peripheral neuropathy is often caused by other diseases, and common conditions include hyperglycemia, uremia, and others. Therefore, patients should first actively treat the underlying disease. In daily life, they should try to avoid contact with harmful metals and medications. While treating the underlying disease, patients can also use neurotrophic drugs such as vitamin B12, B1, and B6 for supplementary treatment.
