Do you often feel numbness, tingling, burning, or weakness in your hands or feet? These could be signs of peripheral neuropathy — a condition caused by damage to your peripheral nerves.
The earlier it’s diagnosed, the better your chances of slowing progression and preventing permanent damage. That’s where the peripheral neuropathy test comes in.
At Asian Vascular Hospitals, Hyderabad, we use advanced diagnostic tools to detect nerve damage early and customize treatment for lasting relief.
💡 What is Peripheral Neuropathy?
Peripheral neuropathy occurs when the nerves outside your brain and spinal cord are damaged. It can result from conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, injuries, infections, or vitamin deficiencies.
Without diagnosis and treatment, nerve damage can worsen, leading to chronic pain, loss of sensation, and mobility issues.
🔍 Why You May Need a Peripheral Neuropathy Test
You should book a peripheral neuropathy test if you experience:
- Persistent numbness or tingling in hands or feet
- Burning or sharp pain in extremities
- Muscle weakness or difficulty walking
- Unexplained falls or balance issues
- Loss of touch, temperature, or vibration sense
