Nerve pain is neuropathy. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc treats Fort Wayne
neuropathy with Fort Wayne chiropractic care. Burning, stabbing, numb
pain in the arms, hands, feet, leg, toes, fingers is neuropathic pain. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc

is due to a multitude of likely
issues like pinched nerves, spinal stenosis, or pressure from a herniated disc.

neuropathy may follow. Neuropathy may extend to
the hands and feet depending on the nerve that is
irritated. Neuropathy is painful. Neuropathy heals bit
by bit. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc may well assist its
heal and relief.
Causes and Symptoms of Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is a type of neuropathy Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc
sees in Fort Wayne neck and back pain
patients. Peripheral neuropathy develops out of damage
to peripheral nerves. These nerves are part of the nervous system that sends
information from your brain to your spinal cord (which is the central
nervous system) and then out to the rest of the body. That potentially allows peripheral neuropathy extend to your
toes and fingers. It may be brought on by sudden
trauma or injury or by repetitive stress due to compression type
injuries from doing certain activities over and
over that bother and inflame joints, tendons and muscles. Fort Wayne patients will describe
peripheral neuropathy as a tingling sensation or sharp,
stabbing pain or a numbness or a burning sensation in the hands or feet or as a
clumsiness that has you dropping things all the time. (1) Whatever
its sensation, peripheral neuropathy may be disruptive, may go
away if the peripheral nervous system has a chance to
heal itself after injury or the source of the peripheral neuropathy is discovered
and remedied, or may be assisted in healing. This
is where Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc comes into play to identify
the source of the neuropathy and share Fort Wayne chiropractic
care to address it and lessen the irritation on
the nerves. One article even shares
that 28 days of compression causes disc degeneration while 28 days of
decompression reverses it. (2) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc uses Cox
Technic to do this!
Healing Ability of Nerves in Neuropathy
Curiously, peripheral nerves have an amazing knack for regenerating themselves
after injury. It takes time. One author explains that
these nerves regenerate a millimeter a day (about an inch a month), so if the nerve that is damaged goes from your spine to your toes, that may take more time. (3) Researchers report
that good but incomplete recovery comes about over 2 to 3
years for most patients with sciatic neuropathy (due to spinal nerve
compression). Moderate improvement of the symptoms occurs in 30% of
sciatic neuropathy patients by 1 year, 50% by 2 years and 75% by 3 years. (4) In
a review of published evidence concerning
neuropathic pain, researchers record that 37% of chronic
low back pain (that lasting more than 3 months) cases and 41% of soft tissue
syndromes (like ligament or muscle tears) have neuropathic pain.
