Groton chiropractic care of neuropathy pain with nutrition like B vitamins and spinal manipulation.
Neuropathy pain is an annoying pain. It is sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. Groton neuropathic pain sufferers often observe themselves taking medications like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to relieve neuropathic pain as they are the most commonly prescribed ones. (1) Some patients react well. Some experience only slight pain relief. Some cannot take the drugs due to the unfavorable side-effects. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office appreciates this frustration. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office assists many Groton neuropathy patients try other means to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to attain the Groton neuropathic pain relief they desire.
WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE ACCESSIBLE? WHY ARE THEY NOT USED MORE?
Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well be an important part – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One study describes how adequately dosed nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may reveal itself due to 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 reported nausea and vomiting when ALA was used at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why then if doses can be adjusted are they not suggested or used more? They’re not usually paid for by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may might deliver. (1) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is well informed of such options. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office helps Groton chiropractic patients navigate these options to optimize their benefits for Groton 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 beneficial? 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 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 schedule for a patient with neuropathic pain may well be beneficial! (3) And Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office mixes nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Groton neuropathy patients to uncover neuropathic pain relief.
