St Peters 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. St Peters neuropathic pain sufferers many times observe themselves using medications like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to control neuropathic pain since they are the most commonly prescribed drugs. (1) Some patients respond positively. Some experience only a little pain relief. Some can’t take them because of the unfavorable side-effects. Old Mill Chiropractic understands this vexation. Old Mill Chiropractic assists many St Peters neuropathy patients try other ways to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to attain the St Peters neuropathic pain relief they want.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE ACCESSIBLE? WHY ARE THEY NOT USED MORE?
Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well play a role – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One study describes how adequately dosed nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may reveal itself as a result of different types of causes 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 reported nausea and vomiting when ALA was taken at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why then if doses can be adjusted are they not suggested or used more? They’re not usually covered by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may might deliver. (1) Old Mill Chiropractic is well aware of such options. Old Mill Chiropractic helps St Peters chiropractic patients find their way with these options to optimize their benefits for St Peters pain relief.
ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS
B vitamins perform. How? B vitamins enhance the effectiveness of morphine’s painkilling effect of stopping pain sensation and reduce chronic morphine tolerance. How is this beneficial? The action of morphine is comparable 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 reduce 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 routine for a patient with neuropathic pain certainly could well be beneficial!
