Neuropathy – Common Symptoms and Treatment Methods

Common Causes of Neuropathy

Neuropathy can result from various factors, including diabetes, which is one of the leading causes due to prolonged high blood sugar levels damaging nerves. Infections and autoimmune diseases such as shingles, Lyme disease, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis can also contribute to nerve damage. Vitamin deficiencies, particularly in B1, B6, B12, and E, are linked to nerve dysfunction. Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to nutritional deficiencies that affect nerve health. Certain chemotherapy drugs and exposure to toxins like heavy metals can contribute to neuropathy. Physical injuries, including those from accidents or repetitive motion, can also lead to nerve damage.
