    The word neuropathy is derived from two parts:  "neuro" referring to the nerve and "pathy" indicating disorder. Peripheral neuropathy is a condition occurring when injury or disease damages your peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nerves are the nerves that originate from your brain and spinal cord, and extend to your skin, muscles and tissues.

    The peripheral nervous system relays information between your body and the brain in the form of electrical impulses.  Each nerve is made up of many connected cells called neurons that transmit these impulses.

    Nerves are the communication lines of the body.  Electrical signals from the brain travel through the nerves and give instructions to the various body parts.  The body receives information from the environment through the senses and sends this information to the brain via the nerves. However, damage to the nerves disrupts this which results in the condition called peripheral neuropathy and its various symptoms.

    Neuropathy Symptoms
    Although the severity may vary among sufferers, the painful feeling in hands or feet is the most common neuropathy symptom. Do not think that the pain is not a serious problem as it may prevent you from even touching something.

    In several severe cases, damages can have significant effects on the autonomic nerves and it may lead to some changes in the blood pressure. As a consequence, you may experience dizziness or lightheadedness.

    Neuropathy is not a fatal disease and you can get rid of it immediately at home by making some changes in diet. However, when the symptoms do not disappear after many days, you had better have yourself examined by doctors so as to come up with the best treatment.
