Manahawkin 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. Manahawkin neuropathic pain sufferers many times observe themselves using drugs like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to reduce neuropathic pain since they are the most commonly prescribed ones. (1) Some patients react well. Some experience only minor pain relief. Some cannot take them due to the unfavorable side-effects. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center appreciates this frustration. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center assists many Manahawkin neuropathy patients test out other means to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to get the Manahawkin neuropathic pain relief they desire.  

WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE AVAILABLE? 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 sufficiently dosed nutraceuticals may play a helpful role in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may show up as a result of different types of reasons 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 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 are they not suggested or used more? They’re not usually covered by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may might deliver.  (1) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is well aware of such options. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center helps Manahawkin chiropractic patients find their way with these options to boost their benefits for Manahawkin pain relief.

ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS

B vitamins work. How? B vitamins enhance the effectiveness of morphine’s pain-relieving effect of blocking pain sensation and reduce chronic morphine tolerance. How is this helpful? The action of morphine is comparable to the action of neuropathic pain, burning pain that follows 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 reduce 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). Adding B vitamins to the pain control drug schedule for a patient with neuropathic pain certainly could well be advantageous! (3) And Manahawkin Chiropractic Center mixes nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Manahawkin neuropathy patients to discover neuropathic pain relief.
