Neuropathy pain is an annoying pain. It’s sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected
extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even
touch. Sandy Springs neuropathic pain sufferers many times
find themselves consuming drugs
like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to control
neuropathic pain as they are the most commonly
prescribed ones. (1) Some patients react positively.
Some experience only minor pain relief. Some can’t
take them because of the unfavorable
side-effects. Cross Chiropractic Center recognizes this vexation.
Cross Chiropractic Center assists many Sandy Springs neuropathy patients
try other means to pain relief like nutrition
(particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to attain the Sandy Springs
neuropathic pain relief they desire.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE ACCESSIBLE? WHY ARE
THEY NOT USED MORE?
Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well be an important part – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One
study reports that sufficiently dosed
nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral
neuropathy. Neuropathy may reveal itself due to
different types of reasons like diabetes,
alcoholism, unspecific, or iatrogenic. Plus, 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 taken for extended periods of time. Some
patients stated that they had nausea and
vomiting when ALA was taken at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why
then if doses can be adjusted aren’t they suggested
or used more? They’re not usually paid
for by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may offer. (1) Cross Chiropractic Center is well
aware of such options. Cross Chiropractic Center helps Sandy Springs
chiropractic patients navigate these options to improve
their benefits for Sandy Springs pain relief.
ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS
B vitamins work. How? B vitamins improve
the effectiveness of morphine’s painkilling
effect of stopping pain sensation and lessen
chronic morphine tolerance. How is this good? The
action of morphine is like the action of
neuropathic pain, burning pain that tracks a nerve from the spine
through an extremity like the leg or arm, coming to rest in the
feet, toes, or fingers. B vitamins are reported to 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). Including B vitamins in the pain control drug schedule for a patient with
neuropathic pain certainly could well be advantageous!
