Neuropathy means damage to nerves in the peripheral nervous system, and so affects nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord - it does not include nerve damage in the central nervous system.
Three main types of nerve can be involved in peripheral neuropathy:
- Autonomic nerves (not under conscious control, "automatic" or "involuntary" nerves) - Autonomic nerves regulate the automatic functions of the body - for example, heart rate and blood pressure, sweating, and so on.
- Motor nerves - Motor nerves control the muscles of the body and fall under conscious control.
- Sensory nerves - Sensory nerves pass sensations from a part of the body to the brain, including information about cold, heat and pain.
People often describe the pain of neuropathy as being a tingling or burning sensation.
There are many things that can cause neuropathy. Physical trauma, repetitive injury, infection, metabolic problems and exposure to toxins and some drugs can all lead to peripheral neuropathy. Most cases of neuropathy are found in people who have the metabolic disorder diabetes, when it is known simply as diabetic neuropathy.
Diabetic neuropathy is a microvascular complication: excess blood glucose in people with diabetes can, over a number of years, injure the walls of tiny blood vessels supplying nerves, especially those in the legs. The consequence of the nerve damage can be an inability to feel pain, and so problems can go unnoticed by people with diabetes, for example because of "insensate" injury to their feet.
The medical profession has continued to use high levels of pain medications as the answer to this problem. That solution only masks the real issue and puts the patient in a lower functioning medicated state.
