Neuropathy pain is an annoying pain. It
is sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the involved
extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even
touch. Fort Wayne neuropathic pain sufferers often
find themselves consuming drugs
like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to relieve
neuropathic pain as they are the most commonly
prescribed ones. (1) Some patients respond positively.
Some experience only minor pain relief. Some cannot
take them due to the unfavorable
side-effects. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic understands this frustration.
Aaron Chiropractic Clinic helps many Fort Wayne neuropathy patients
test out other means to pain relief like nutrition
(particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to attain the Fort Wayne
neuropathic pain relief they desire.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE ACCESSIBLE? WHY ARE
THEY NOT USED MORE?
Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well play
a role – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One
study describes how adequately dosed
nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral
neuropathy. Neuropathy may show up as a result of
various types of causes like diabetes,
alcoholism, unspecific, or iatrogenic. Additionally, 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 extended periods of time. Some
patients stated that they had nausea and
vomiting when ALA was taken at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why
then if doses can be altered aren’t they recommended
or used more? They’re not often covered by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not know
much about what these options are and what benefits they may offer. (1) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is well
informed of such options. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic helps Fort Wayne
chiropractic patients find their way with these options to optimize
their benefits for Fort Wayne pain relief.
ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS
B vitamins work. How? B vitamins improve
the effectiveness of morphine’s painkilling
effect of stopping pain sensation and weaken
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 are reported to weaken
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 routine for a patient with
neuropathic pain may well be beneficial!
