Nearly one in fifteen people―that's 20 million people in the United States―suffers from peripheral neuropathy, or nerve damage. Caused by such conditions as diabetes, cancer, vitamin deficiencies, and kidney disease as well as certain drugs and toxins, neuropathy brings numbness, tingling, and burning in the feet, legs, and fingertips. Neuropathy can be more than uncomfortable―it can be disabling: people whose fingertips are numb may find it hard to button clothing and complete other everyday tasks. Neuropathy is often dangerous, as well: people who cannot feel their feet are more likely to stumble and fall, and they may not notice injuries that need medical attention. Dr. Janice F. Wiesman, a neurologist with twenty years of experience helping people who have neuropathy find relief, shares her special insights into this painful and debilitating condition. With exceptional clarity, Dr. Wiesman begins by outlining the basics of nerve anatomy and function. She explains how peripheral neuropathy is diagnosed and treated, describes neuropathy’s disparate causes, and offers readers lifestyle changes that can help keep nerves healthy. A useful glossary defines terms, patient stories offer real-world experiences, and illustrations provide a visual key to the condition. A detailed resources section points the reader to reliable web sites and organizations that offer more help. Concentrating on the most common types of neuropathy, Dr. Wiesman provides hope, help, and comfort to patients, families, and caregivers. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 5.5 x 0.34 x 8.5 inches | | Edition | 1st | | Isbn 10 | 1421420856 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1421420851 | | Item Weight | 6.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Part Of Series | Johns Hopkins Press Health | | Print Length | 136 pages | | Publication Date | October 18, 2016 | | Publisher | Johns Hopkins University Press | | Reading Age | 18 years and up | ## Images ![Peripheral Neuropathy: What It Is and What You Can Do to Feel Better (A Johns Hopkins Press Health Book) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41CBs5eU2PL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This complex disease is made easy to understand *by on Reviewed in the United States October 21, 2016* Peripheral neuropathy can cause pain, numbness, weakness, and a host of other problems.
