How can I find treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy meaning in Urdu is "اعصاب کی کمزوری". It is a condition in which the peripheral nerves, the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, become damaged. These nerves carry messages between the body and the central nervous system. When they are damaged, the messages do not travel properly, leading to numbness, pain, weakness, and other problems.

Peripheral neuropathy affects around 1 in 100 adults worldwide. The risk rises with age. Diabetes is the most common cause globally and especially in Pakistan, where diabetes rates are very high. The condition can affect one nerve, several nerves, or many nerves at the same time. Early treatment of the underlying cause can prevent further nerve damage.
