Neuropathy
Causes of neuropathy
Sometimes, there may be a trigger or trauma that may cause neuropathy and other times, there may be no specific detectable cause at all. Some of the common causes of neuropathy are:
- Parkinson’s disease: it causes unintended or uncontrollable movements of the limbs like shaking, stiffness, and difficulty coordinating.
- Stroke: A brain stroke may cause neuropathy due to blocking of a brain artery or haemorrhage
- Head injury: A strong physical trauma to the head may also cause neuropathy
- Diabetic neuropathy: Diabetes is infamous for acting as the forerunner of neural disorders like ganglia and neuropathy

Are nerve related drugs better than physiotherapy?
Nerve related drugs aim at giving a temporary solution to the condition but do not treat it. With regular physiotherapy, the conditions can be made manageable. You should work on the advice of the doctor itself!

Shivering of hands, sudden loss of muscle coordination, pain, pin-and-needles sensation- all these are early warning signs of neuropathy.

Apart from the diseases mentioned above, nutritional imbalance, alcoholism, exposure to toxins, excess of vitamins or even several medications may trigger neuropathy.
