Introduction
Neuropathy refers to damage or dysfunction of one or more peripheral nerves, resulting in symptoms such as numbness, tingling, burning pain, weakness, or altered sensation.
It can affect a single nerve (mononeuropathy), multiple nerves (polyneuropathy), or nerve roots, and may significantly impact mobility, balance, and quality of life.
Neuropathy has many possible causes, including diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, infections, metabolic disorders, medication effects, and nerve compression.
Effective treatment depends on accurate diagnosis of the underlying cause and a structured, individualized management plan.
