Nutritional deficiencies can cause peripheral neuropathies. Early diagnosis and B-complex vitamin supplementation can improve prognosis, even with other co-existing conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Nutrition Science
  • Podiatry

Background:

  • Nutritional deficiencies are common causes of various syndromes.
  • Peripheral neuropathies can be linked to nutritional deficits.
  • Diagnosis of nutritional neuropathy is often challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss common nutritional deficiency syndromes.
  • To highlight the link between nutrition and peripheral neuropathy.
  • To inform physicians about diagnosis and management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and prognosis of nutritional deficiencies.
  • Emphasis on the relationship between nutritional status and peripheral neuropathies.
  • Discussion of diagnostic aids, including pharmacologic supplementation.

Main Results:

  • Nutritional deficiency should be considered in patients with peripheral neuropathy.
  • Prompt diagnosis and treatment significantly improve outcomes.
  • Multiple deficiencies may coexist, complicating diagnosis.
  • Pharmacologic supplementation, especially B-complex vitamins, aids diagnosis and treatment.

Conclusions:

  • Podiatric physicians are well-equipped to manage pedal manifestations of peripheral neuropathies.
  • Increased physician awareness of nutritionally induced neuropathies is crucial.
  • Effective management strategies, including supplementation, are available.
