Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment at SOLUTIONS Pain and Spine Doctors
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that results from damage to the peripheral nerves — the vast network of nerves that transmit signals between the brain, spinal cord, and the rest of the body. It can cause weakness, numbness, tingling, and chronic pain, most commonly in the hands and feet. At SOLUTIONS Pain and Spine Doctors, Dr. Priscilla Agbenyefia provides comprehensive, individualized treatment for peripheral neuropathy at all four of our Georgia locations: Peachtree Corners, Buford, Decatur, and Athens.
Causes of Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy has many potential causes, including:
- Diabetes (diabetic peripheral neuropathy) — the most common cause, affecting up to 50% of people with diabetes
- Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN)
- Autoimmune diseases (Guillain-Barré syndrome, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)
- Infections (shingles/post-herpetic neuralgia, Lyme disease, HIV)
- Vitamin deficiencies (B12, B6, folate)
- Alcohol use disorder
- Thyroid disorders
- Inherited conditions (Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease)
- Idiopathic neuropathy (unknown cause)
Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
Symptoms vary depending on the type of nerves affected (sensory, motor, or autonomic) and may include:
- Burning, stabbing, or shooting pain in the feet, legs, hands, or arms
- Numbness or reduced sensation
- Tingling or “pins and needles” sensations
- Extreme sensitivity to touch (allodynia)
- Muscle weakness or loss of coordination
- Balance problems and increased fall risk
- Sleep disturbances due to pain
Treatment Options for Peripheral Neuropathy
At SOLUTIONS Pain and Spine Doctors, we offer a comprehensive range of treatments for peripheral neuropathy, tailored to each patient’s specific cause, severity, and goals:
Medication Management: We carefully evaluate and optimize your medication regimen, which may include anticonvulsants (gabapentin, pregabalin), antidepressants (duloxetine, amitriptyline), topical agents (lidocaine patches, capsaicin cream), and other neuropathic pain medications.
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS): For patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy or chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, spinal cord stimulation has demonstrated significant efficacy in reducing neuropathic pain and improving quality of life. High-frequency SCS is particularly effective for painful diabetic neuropathy.
Radiofrequency Ablation of Peripheral Nerves: For localized peripheral nerve pain, radiofrequency ablation can provide targeted, long-lasting relief by disrupting pain signal transmission.
Ketamine Infusions: For refractory neuropathic pain, ketamine infusion therapy can reset central sensitization and provide significant relief for patients who have not responded to other treatments.
Regenerative Medicine: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and other regenerative treatments may help promote nerve healing and reduce inflammation in appropriate candidates.
Lifestyle and Supportive Care: We provide guidance on blood sugar management (for diabetic neuropathy), nutritional optimization, physical therapy referrals, and fall prevention strategies.
