At Injury Doctors NYC, we understand the challenges that come with managing diabetic neuropathy. This condition, resulting from prolonged high blood sugar levels, affects the nerves, particularly in the feet, legs, and hands, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, and other discomforts. Our expert team is dedicated to providing personalized care and effective treatment options to help you manage and alleviate the symptoms of diabetic neuropathy, improving your quality of life.

What is Diabetic Neuropathy?

Diabetic neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur in individuals with diabetes. Over time, high blood sugar levels can injure the nerves throughout the body, especially in the extremities. This condition can lead to:

If left untreated, diabetic neuropathy can severely affect your daily activities. That's why timely intervention and comprehensive care are essential.

Our Diabetic Neuropathy Treatment Options

At Injury Doctors NYC, we take a multi-disciplinary approach to treating diabetic neuropathy. Our treatments are designed to target the root cause of the condition while providing relief from its painful symptoms. Our team of specialists includes doctors, physical therapists, and pain management professionals who work together to create an individualized treatment plan that may include:

1. Pain Management

We focus on reducing the pain associated with diabetic neuropathy through a combination of medication management, nerve blocks, and other advanced pain relief techniques. Our goal is to help you regain mobility and comfort in your everyday life.

2. Physical Therapy

Physical therapy is a crucial part of managing diabetic neuropathy. We offer specialized exercises and stretches to improve strength, flexibility, and balance, helping to reduce the risk of falls and injuries. Our therapists will guide you through exercises tailored to your needs, promoting better coordination and function.

3. Nerve Stimulation Therapy

Nerve stimulation therapy is a non-invasive option that helps to reduce pain and improve circulation. We may use techniques like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) or neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to stimulate the nerves and provide relief from neuropathy symptoms.

4. Comprehensive Lifestyle Guidance

Proper management of diabetes is key to preventing further nerve damage. We provide education and support to help you better manage your blood sugar levels and reduce your risk of complications. Our team will work with you on dietary recommendations, exercise plans, and monitoring your blood sugar to manage the progression of neuropathy.

5. Advanced Diagnostic Tools

We use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to assess the extent of nerve damage and track your progress. From advanced imaging to nerve conduction studies, we ensure a thorough understanding of your condition, allowing us to tailor the most effective treatment plan for you.
