Peripheral neuropathy consists of damage to the peripheral nervous system, which transmits information from the brain and spinal cord (which comprise the central nervous system) to other parts of the body.
There exists more than 100 types of peripheral neuropathy, each is characterized by its own constellation of symptoms, pattern of progress, and prognosis. The type of body function that gets impaired and symptoms depend on the type of nerves -- motor, sensory, or autonomic -- that get damaged. In some individuals, temporary numbness, tingling, and pricking sensations, sensitivity to touch are the prominent features, while in others it's muscle weakness. Others may suffer more extreme symptoms, including burning pain (especially at night), muscle wasting, paralysis, or organ or glanddys function.
Peripheral neuropathy may be either inherited or acquired. Causes of acquired peripheral neuropathy include physical injury (trauma) to a nerve, tumors, toxins, autoimmune responses, nutritional deficiencies, alcoholism, medical procedures, and vascular and metabolic disorders. Acquired peripheral neuropathies are caused by systemic disease, trauma from external agents, or infections or autoimmune disorders affecting nerve tissue. Inherited forms of peripheral neuropathy are caused by inborn mistakes in the genetic code or by new genetic mutations.
The inherited form of peripheral neuropathy still has no definitive cure. However, it is helpful to adopt healthy habits to reduce the severity of the symptoms. These include maintaining optimal weight, avoiding exposure to toxins, following a physician-supervised exercise program, eating a balanced diet, correcting vitamin deficiencies, and limiting or avoiding alcohol consumption.
In acute neuropathies, such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, symptoms appear suddenly, progress rapidly, and resolve slowly as damaged nerves heal. In chronic forms,symptoms begin subtly and progress slowly. Some individuals may experience periods of remission followed by relapse. Others may reach a plateau stage where symptoms remain unchanged for many months or years. Some chronic neuropathies grow worse over time, but very few forms prove fatal unless complicated by other diseases. In few cases, the neuropathy is a symptom of another disorder.
