Tonawanda chiropractic care of neuropathy pain with nutrition like B vitamins and spinal manipulation.

Neuropathy pain is a bothersome pain. It’s sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. Tonawanda neuropathic pain sufferers often find themselves taking medications like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to reduce neuropathic pain as they are the most commonly prescribed ones. (1) Some patients react positively. Some experience only minor pain relief. Some can’t take them due to the unfavorable side-effects. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands this annoyance. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation assists many Tonawanda neuropathy patients test out other ways to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to get the Tonawanda neuropathic pain relief they want.  

WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE AVAILABLE? 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 different types of causes like diabetes, alcoholism, unspecific, or iatrogenic. Plus, these compounds like Vitamin B complex, alpha lipoic acid, L-acetyl carnitine, vitamin E, magnesium, gamma linolenic acid, capsaicin, and Coenzyme Q were stomached well when taken for long periods of time. Some patients reported nausea and vomiting when ALA was used 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 paid for by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not know much about what these options are and what benefits they may offer.  (1) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is well aware of such options. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation helps Tonawanda chiropractic patients find their way with these options to optimize their benefits for Tonawanda pain relief.

ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS

B vitamins work. How? B vitamins improve the effectiveness of morphine’s analgesic 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 follows a nerve from the spine through an extremity like the leg or arm, coming to rest in the feet, toes, or fingers. B vitamins reportedly 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! (3) And Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation mixes nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Tonawanda neuropathy patients to uncover neuropathic pain relief.
