Chemotherapy has been known to cause neuropathy. Our Treatments Can Help!
No one wants to beat cancer only to live with debilitating neuropathy the rest of their life. And thanks to Neuropathy Treatment Clinic of Oklahoma, you don’t have to!
Neuropathy can be a long-lasting side effect of cancer treatment. It occurs when chemo damages, inflames, or degenerates the peripheral nerves in your body. This can, in turn, affect your arms, legs, hands, and feet by causing numbness and tingling, burning sensations, or loss of sensation altogether.
Chemotherapy drugs that use vinca alkaloids, platinum compounds, taxanes and thalidomide are more likely to contribute to symptoms of neuropathy. However, there are other factors that could be causing problems as well. Tumors, themselves, could be pressing on nerves and causing the pain you feel. Also, cancers of the nervous system, like brain tumors, tumors in the spine and skull base tumors are more likely to result in these unwanted symptoms.
Symptoms of neuropathy can be different for each individual because of the type and location of nerves that are damaged. One person might suffer from hearing loss or facial pain, whereas another has difficulty walking and loss of balance.
