If you’re experiencing burning, numbness, or strange sensations in your hands or feet, you may be dealing with peripheral neuropathy—a serious condition that damages the nerves and progressively impacts quality of life.
At the Neuropathy Relief Center of Miami, we see hundreds of patients with varying degrees of neuropathy. Many suffer for years before discovering what’s truly causing their symptoms.
Here’s what you need to know about the most common signs of peripheral neuropathy—and what you can do to treat them without drugs or surgery.
What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is the result of nerve damage to the peripheral nervous system—the network that transmits signals between your brain, spinal cord, and extremities (arms, hands, legs, and feet).
The most common causes include:
- Diabetes
- Chemotherapy or other medications
- Toxin exposure (industrial, alcohol, military)
- Spinal or joint issues causing nerve compression
These factors deprive nerves of oxygen and nutrients, causing them to malfunction or die.
The Most Common Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
Symptoms vary depending on the type and severity of nerve damage. Most patients we treat experience bilateral symptoms—on both sides of the body—but some may feel it only in one foot, hand, or leg.
Here are the most frequent symptoms seen in our Miami clinic:
- 🔥 Burning pain
- ⚡ Sharp, stabbing, or electric-like shocks
- 🧊 Coldness in feet or hands
- 🧬 Tingling or pins-and-needles sensations
- 🚫 Numbness or loss of feeling
- 🧲 Vice-like tightness or pressure
- 🐜 Crawling or «bug-like» sensations
- ⚠️ Poor wound healing in the feet
- 🔄 Balance issues or unsteady walking
- 🚶♂️ Difficulty standing or walking for long periods
If you’ve been noticing any of these symptoms—especially if they’re progressive or constant—it’s time to take action.
The Problem With Medications
Conventional medicine offers pills to cover up the symptoms:
- Gabapentin or Lyrica
- Antidepressants like Cymbalta
- NSAIDs or opioids
These do not heal damaged nerves. They may provide temporary relief but often lead to dependence or side effects—while the condition silently worsens.
