Best Peripheral Neuralgia – Neuropathy
Doctors in Reno, Sparks and Carson City, Nevada.
Peripheral neuropathy is a disease that causes the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord not to work properly. This usually results in a loss of function in the nerve which can result in pain, dysaesthesias (painful tingling sensations) and numbness in the distribution of the nerve.

Treatment options are medications, physical therapy, and spinal cord or peripheral nerve stimulation (neuromodulation). Spinal cord stimulation is a procedure the doctor inserts electrodes into the epidural space over the spinal cord through an epidural needle. Peripheral nerve stimulation is a procedure where electrodes are placed along a damaged peripheral nerve. The electrodes in both cases are then used to transmit a signal that blocks pain and replaces the pain with a more pleasant feeling.
