Overview

Patients with peripheral neuropathy may have a positive history of: Metabolic disorder, long-standing illness, childhood clumsiness, unsteady gait and falls, Neurological diseases, neurological diseases, occupational inorganic lead exposure and Malignancy. The most common symptoms of peripheral neuropathy include: Gradual progressive numbness, Prickling or tingling in feet and hands, Burning pain in extremities, extreme sensitivity to touch, Ataxia, frequent falls, muscle weakness or paralysis, Constipation, diarrhea, early satiety, nausea, problems controlling bowel movements, Swallowing problems, Abdomen distention,Vomiting, impaired heart rate, resting tachycardia, exercise intolerance, abnormal blood pressure regulation, orthostatic hypotension, Heat intolerance and altered sweating, urine incontinence, pain (usually from optic neuritis), Vision loss, Visual field los, loss of color vision and flashing lights.
