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

July 03, 2018

Neuropathy pain is a bothersome pain. It is sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the affected extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. Montreal neuropathic pain sufferers often find themselves taking drugs like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to control neuropathic pain since they are the most universally prescribed drugs. (1) Some patients respond well. Some experience only slight pain relief. Some cannot take the drugs because of the unfavorable side-effects. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic recognizes this annoyance. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic helps many Montreal neuropathy patients test out other means to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to get the Montreal neuropathic pain relief they want.  

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 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 taken at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why then if doses can be adjusted aren’t they suggested or used more? They are 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) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is well informed of such options. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic helps Montreal chiropractic patients navigate these options to optimize their benefits for Montreal pain relief.

ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS

B vitamins work. How? B vitamins enhance the effectiveness of morphine’s analgesic effect of obstructing pain sensation and lessen chronic morphine tolerance. How is this good? The action of morphine is like the action of neuropathic pain, burning pain that tracks 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 certainly could well be beneficial! (3) And Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic combines nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for Montreal neuropathy patients to discover neuropathic pain relief.
