neuropathy clinic in Montreal
The disease or dysfunction of one or more peripheral nerves, usually causing numbness or weakness and pain, due to nerve damage is known as neuropathy. So basically we can say that nerve disorders cause pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in various parts of the body which usually start in an arm or leg and worsen over time. But there is Sportmed Acupuncture providing a neuropathy clinic in Montreal which is going to be a blessing to the patients with neuropathy. Neuropathy can result from cancer or cancer treatment, such as chemotherapy. It can also be caused by bodily injury, infection, toxic substances, or conditions such as diabetes, kidney failure, or malnutrition. There are four types of neuropathy as below:
- 1.Peripheral neuropathy- This neuropathy is caused mainly by diabetes but it can also result from trauma, infection, and exposure to toxins. The nerves leading to the legs are very long, it is this nerve that is damaged most often and there can be many more of them. This nerve damage can lead to foot problems often associated with diabetes, including foot deformities, infections, ulcers, and amputations.
- 2.Proximal Neuropathy - Proximal neuropathy is also called diabetic muscular atrophy. It is a form of neuropathy that can cause muscle weakness. It especially affects the muscles of the upper extremities, buttocks, and thighs. Proximal neuropathy is the second most common type of diabetic neuropathy (after peripheral diabetic neuropathy). It usually affects older people with diabetes. Unlike peripheral neuropathy, it usually resolves with time treatment.
- 3.Autonomic Neuropathy - Autonomic nerves keep the body functioning properly. There are many functions that happen in the body without even thinking about it. Your heart beats, you breathe, your stomach digests food, all these behaviors are controlled by the autonomic nervous system. So when the nerves controlling involuntary functions of the body are defaced then autonomic neuropathy occurs.
- 4.Focal neuropathy - All types of diabetic neuropathy, including peripheral, autonomic and proximal, are examples of polyneuropathy. Poly means it affects many nerves. In contrast, focal neuropathy affects one specific nerve. It is also known as target neuropathy and mononeuropathy.
