Warning Signs Of Peripheral Neuropathy

Constipation Or Diarrhea

As most individuals know, constipation includes straining during bowel movements, having fewer bowel movements than normal, and passing hard stools. Diarrhea is the opposite. It involves having watery and loose stools and, in many cases, frequently needing to visit the bathroom to have a bowel movement. Patients may experience constipation or diarrhea as a symptom of peripheral neuropathy. These symptoms will likely occur when the patient’s nerve damage is linked to nerves in their digestive tract. Although some individuals may find these symptoms can disappear over time, peripheral neuropathy must be managed for most patients to experience reliable relief.
