Dear Dr. A Person Who Is Enduring Peripheral Neuropathy Is
Question: Dear Dr.
A person who is enduring peripheral neuropathy is told by everyone that it is important to find the cause because the proper treatment depends on the cause. However, finding that cause can quickly become a very complex adventure with multiple tests being taken over a period of many days. There may also, in addition, be many weeks of waiting time to get to the specialist who can order such tests.
In the meantime, the patient may well be experiencing annoying and randomly arriving stings of “pins and needles” and tingling at unpredictable parts of the body, leading to a significant rise in anxiety levels. The significant rise in anxiety levels soon becomes an intensifier of these symptoms.
What should be done to reduce the anxiety levels and to try to bring the symptoms down to an acceptable degree of annoyance while waiting for the tests to happen?
The only answer that I've seen in the medical literature and from a neurologist is that the person could take certain medications (“anxiolytic drugs” and/or non-prescription NSAIDs ) that tend to disrupt the passage of signals from the brain to other parts of the system and thus tend to inhibit the appearance of the symptoms.
In your opinion, is this taking of medications the only route available or recommended for achieving essential relief from pain and anxiety while the patient waits for tests to be conducted?

Peripheral neuropathy is the condition arises due to damage of Nerves.
What should be done to reduce the anxiety levels: Exercise proper diet and medication are the two best best possible ways to reduce the anxiety level. This will help to heal the nerve.

Precaution you may take to get the relief
use shocks or cover body parts to increase the blood circulation
