https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31336449/ Backgroundd: Diabetic Peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most distressing complication of diabetic population leading to loss of sensation, pain, and amputation. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been used to manage nerve injuries as it holds the potential to induce a biostimulatory effect with no side...

Health nerves receive oxygenated blood and nutrition through microscopic capillaries. Damage and/or obstruction to these small blood vessels as a result of high blood sugar, toxins, mechanical entrapment restricts the transfer of oxygen and nutrition to the nerve cells causing nerve cell death.

The Most Common Medication Prescribed For Peripheral Neuropathy? Painkillers and anti-inflammatory Over-the-counter pain medications nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs Prescription medications containing opioids : tramadol (Conzip, Ultram) oxycodone (Oxycontin, Roxicodone) Anti-seizure Medications: gabapentin (Gralise, Neurontin, Horizant) and pregabalin (Lyrica), Antidepressants Medications: amitriptyline, doxepin (Silenor, Zonalon) and nortriptyline (Pamelor) (Cymbalta) and venlafaxine (Effexor...
