Understanding Neuropathic Pain—A Common Yet Overlooked Issue

Why nerve pain needs attention

Many individuals experience burning, tingling, or shooting sensations in their hands or feet but ignore them for months. These may be signs of neuropathic pain.

Neuropathic pain occurs when nerves are damaged or not functioning properly. It can result from lifestyle factors, nutritional deficiencies, or long-term health conditions. Early recognition is crucial because nerve-related symptoms can gradually worsen. Awareness helps people identify symptoms such as numbness, sharp pain, or increased sensitivity. Healthy lifestyle choices and regular check-ups can support nerve wellness and improve long-term quality of life.
