Manchester chiropractic care of neuropathy pain with nutrition like B vitamins and spinal manipulation.
Neuropathy pain is a bothersome pain. It is sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. Manchester neuropathic pain sufferers often find themselves using medications like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to reduce neuropathic pain since they are the most commonly prescribed drugs. (1) Some patients respond well. Some experience only minor pain relief. Some cannot take the drugs due to the adverse side-effects. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries understands this vexation. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries assists many Manchester neuropathy patients test out other ways to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to get the Manchester neuropathic pain relief they desire.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE AVAILABLE? 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 adequately dosed nutraceuticals may play a helpful role in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may show up due to 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 long 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 altered are they not suggested or used more? They’re not often covered by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may offer. (1) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is well aware of such options. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries helps Manchester chiropractic patients find their way with these options to optimize their benefits for Manchester pain relief.
ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS
B vitamins work. How? B vitamins improve the effectiveness of morphine’s analgesic effect of stopping pain sensation and diminish chronic morphine tolerance. How is this helpful? The action of morphine is similar to the action of neuropathic pain, burning pain that tracks a nerve from the spine through an extremity like the leg or arm, settling 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). Including B vitamins in the pain control drug schedule for a patient with neuropathic pain may well be beneficial! (3) And Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries combines nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Manchester neuropathy patients to uncover neuropathic pain relief.
