8 Signs You Might Have Nerve Damage !
There are billions of nerves in your body.
Most of them, your peripheral nerves, are like branches of a tree that spread out all
over and transmit messages back to the "trunk"—your brain and spinal cord.
When everything goes smoothly, your brain gets the info it needs so that you can move
your muscles, recognize pain, and keep your internal organs working properly.
But when peripheral nerves get damaged, it's another story: Walking could become challenging,
you might experience unrelenting pain, or you could end up with a serious injury because
you had no idea how hot that stove was.
You have numbness, tingling, or burning ! This sensation may radiate from your hands
or feet into your arms or legs.
"Compression of sensory nerves (often while sleeping) is relatively common, and symptoms
such as numbness or tingling can be temporary, But if the pins-and-needles feeling doesn't
go away, get it checked out.
It's difficult or impossible to move part of your body !
"If motor nerves are affected, then weakness or even paralysis may occur," These same symptoms
could also indicate that there's an underlying issue that needs urgent attention, so it's
best to head to the ER.
If it turns out that you're actually having a stoke, you'll need medical attention ASAP.
You have pain running down just one leg ! A constant sharp pain, burning, or tingling
that starts in the lower back and travels down the back of your leg could mean that
you have sciatica.
This happens when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed or damaged, either by a herniated
disk in your spine or by a disease such as diabetes.
You're way clumsier than usual ! Suddenly stumbling and falling a lot?
"If large nerves affecting sensation are damaged, then lack of coordination and failure to sense
the position of the body can lead to falls," It might also turn out that you have a condition
like Parkinson's, in which the nerve cells in your brain have become damaged.
You're running to the bathroom all the time !
Damaged nerves can send your bladder faulty messages, so you feel like you have to pee
a lot or have trouble making it to the restroom in time.
You have a higher than average risk of this problem if you gave birth to a child vaginally
or have diabetes.
You get brief, intense headaches that feel like electric shocks !
You may have something called occipital neuralgia, a condition that can occur when a nerve in
your neck gets pinched.
You may need a nerve block—an injection that temporarily blocks the troublesome nerve
from transmitting pain signals.
You're sweating too much or too little ! It might be a sign that the nerves carrying
info from your brain to your sweat glands have become compromised.
Your doctor might order tests to measure your sweating and heart rate.
You got injured because you didn't feel something you should have !
Sensory nerves are supposed to tell your brain that a surface is dangerous in some way, and
if they're not doing their job properly you could seem more accident-prone.
If you have burns, cuts, or other trauma because you didn't realize that you were touching
something hot, sharp, or otherwise uncomfortable, see
your doc.
