Neuropathy, also known as peripheral neuropathy, is a neurological condition that occurs when the peripheral nerves become damaged. These nerves transmit signals between the brain, spinal cord, and the rest of the body. Damage to these nerves can interfere with normal communication, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, and reduced coordination.

Neuropathy may affect a single nerve, multiple nerves, or nerve groups throughout the body. Diabetes is one of the most common causes, but infections, injuries, autoimmune diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and certain medications can also contribute to nerve damage. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are essential to prevent further nerve deterioration and improve long-term outcomes.
