Diabetes and Nerve Damage- What You Should Know About Diabetic Neuropathy


Just imagine ...

Imagine a world where you can't feel the lush grass between your toes.

Imagine a world where you can't hear the harmonious chirps of the birds.

Imagine a world where you can't see the beautiful sunrises or sunsets.

Imagine a world where you can't smell the fragrance of the seasons.

Imagine a world where you can't taste the delectable foods you love.

Is this the kind of world you want to live in? Of course not, but the truth is if you don't take care of your diabetes, this could be the world that you live in.

Diabetes and nerve damage go together like Bonnie and Clyde or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. You can't go with just one, the same goes with diabetes and nerve damage.

What you should know about diabetes and nerve damage

People who have had diabetes for a long period of time are at greater risk of developing nerve damage. At first, the nerve damage may be mild, but as time goes on, the symptoms and treatment worsen. So, here's a checklist of factors that cause nerve damage:

1. Autoimmune factors.

2. High blood sugar.

3. Inherited traits.

4. Lifestyle factors (smoking or alcohol use, no exercising).

5. Mechanical injuries to nerves (like carpal tunnel syndrome).

6. Metabolic factors (like high blood glucose, diabetes, and low levels of insulin).

7. Neurovascular factors (damage to the blood vessels).

As you can see from the above list, there are some risks you simply cannot control. However, you will also note that there are several risks you, and only you, can control.

What you should know about the early symptoms of nerve damage

If you think you're at risk, here is a list of some early symptoms you can check to see if you have:

1. Diarrhea or constipation.

2. Dizziness or faintness due to a drop in blood pressure.

3. Indigestion, nausea, or vomiting.

4. Numbness, tingling, or pain in the toes, legs, feet, hands, arms, and fingers.

5. Problems with urination.

6. Weakness in the muscles of the feet or hands.

7. Weight loss.

What you should know to prevent nerve damage

If you're ready to take some steps to prevent yourself from getting nerve damage, here are a few tips to help ensure your health:

Keep your blood sugar as close to normal as it is safe for you.

Maintain normal blood pressure.

Properly care and inspect your feet on a daily basis.

Quit smoking.

Quit drinking.

What you should know about treatment options for diabetes and nerve damage

Here's a list of treatment options to benefit your health:

- Medications and other treatments.

- Keeping your blood sugar close to normal may help to decrease the pain.

It's not just your imagination...

Imagine a world where you can feel the lush grass between your toes.

Imagine a world where you can hear the harmonious chirps of the birds.

Imagine a world where you can see the beautiful sunrises or sunsets.

Imagine a world where you can smell the fragrance of the seasons.

Imagine a world where you can taste the delectable foods you love.

Imagine a world where you can live the life you've always wanted to live.




For some additional help controlling your blood sugar levels, consider trying an all-natural herbal supplement. When used in conjunction with healthy lifestyle changes, natural supplements provide safe, side-effect free diabetes control.

What You Should Know About Diabetic Neuropathy


Peripheral neuropathy usually results from damage to peripheral nervous system. This often leads to decreased pain sensitivity and severe peripheral nerve damage. It can sometimes affect the ability to exercise the muscles. In most of the cases this terrible disease affects the feet (foot and calf) and may contribute to the emergence of serious problems such as ulcers, infections or bone and joint deformities.

Diabetic neuropathy is a particular form of peripheral neuropathy and is initially asymptomatic. Patients suffering from diabetes should undergo regular medical checks to timely diagnose and treat this problem before they develop serious complications.

After the peripheral nerve damage, the system is making efforts to establish the level of glucose to a target value and therefore symptoms will increase during the initial decrease in blood glucose.

Other possible symptoms

Peripheral neuropathy tends to develop slowly over time, in months or even years. Symptoms may be worse during pregnancy. In general symptoms are:

Tingling, numbness, or burning contracture, pain in the legs, hands, or in other parts of the body; bone and joint deformities could also occur especially in the foot
Major reductions or increases sensitivity to light touch or thermal stimulation
Reduction or loss of balance and coordination disorders
The evolution of diabetes for 10 years or more, poor blood sugar control or vascular complications, kidney or eye, all increase the risk of leg injuries and possible evolution towards a leg amputation.

Treatment

Many patients with peripheral and diabetic neuropathy encounter mild to severe pain in specific areas of the body. During the medical consultation a treatment than can reduce pain and improves the physical and mental condition of the patient should be brought up. These treatments may include medications or ointments that reduce pain and may include medicines used to treat depression such as tricyclic antidepressants, antidepressants such as duloxetine hydrochloride or the anti-epileptic drug known under the name of gabapentin.

This medication is effectively a painkiller (reduces pain) even though there are no associated illnesses such as depression or epilepsy. Complementary therapies are acupuncture, massage and biofeedback. Physiotherapy with ice and heat or exercise can also improve muscle strength. The substance called benfotiamin may be considered a supplement. This is one of the components of thiamine, which in turn is part of the vitamin B. To enhance its effects, garlic is usually taken together with it, or other plants of the Allium family. The treatment is more effective when combined with foot baths using ReBuilder Medical device. However, this is rather expensive and can be replaced with a bowl of hot water with an addition of magnesium powder. The feet must sink at least 1h and the patient should make sure the water is always hot.

More about ReBuilder Medical Treatment

This is one of the latest modern discoveries when it comes to providing a quality treatment for neuropathy. With an accuracy effect of 95 %, it seems that ReBuilder Medical Treatment is by far the best in this domain. The way it works is by detecting healthy nerve systems and sending signals from one extremity to another. And everything happens during a warm foot bath. However, the price is a big disadvantage, because not everyone can afford paying over $500 for this system. But still, there are currently some hospitals providing treatment that involves this kind of technology.
