Plainville chiropractic care of neuropathy pain with nutrition like B vitamins and spinal manipulation.
Neuropathy pain is a bothersome pain. It’s sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. Plainville neuropathic pain sufferers often find themselves taking medications like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to control neuropathic pain as they are the most commonly prescribed drugs. (1) Some patients react positively. Some experience only a little pain relief. Some can’t take them due to the unfavorable side-effects. Layden Chiropractic appreciates this frustration. Layden Chiropractic helps many Plainville neuropathy patients test out other means to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to attain the Plainville neuropathic pain relief they want.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE ACCESSIBLE? WHY AREN’T THEY USED MORE?
Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well be an important part – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One study describes how sufficiently dosed nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may show up due to different types of causes like diabetes, alcoholism, unspecific, or iatrogenic. Additionally, these compounds like Vitamin B complex, alpha lipoic acid, L-acetyl carnitine, vitamin E, magnesium, gamma linolenic acid, capsaicin, and Coenzyme Q were tolerated well when used for extended periods of time. Some patients stated that they experienced nausea and vomiting when ALA was taken at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why then if doses can be altered aren’t they suggested or used more? They are not often paid for by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not know much about what these options are and what benefits they may offer. (1) Layden Chiropractic is well aware of such options. Layden Chiropractic helps Plainville chiropractic patients find their way with these options to optimize their benefits for Plainville pain relief.
ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS
B vitamins perform. How? B vitamins improve the effectiveness of morphine’s pain-relieving effect of obstructing pain sensation and reduce chronic morphine tolerance. How is this beneficial? The action of morphine is similar to the action of neuropathic pain, burning pain that follows a nerve from the spine through an extremity like the leg or arm, coming to rest in the feet, toes, or fingers. B vitamins reportedly weaken neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury, sensory neuron inflammation/compression as well as transient spinal cord ischemia (temporary blockage of blood supply to the spinal cord). Adding B vitamins to the pain control drug schedule for a patient with neuropathic pain may well be beneficial! (3) And Layden Chiropractic combines nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Plainville neuropathy patients to uncover neuropathic pain relief.
