How Can Numbness, Tingling Sensation, Aches And Pains Due To Peripheral Neuropathy Be Managed?
Question: I have been suffering for the past year with peripheral neuropathy, especially involving my limbs on my right side. Had been limited to numbness, tingling, aches & pains. Now also experiencing trembling in my right hand. Do you think that is related to the overall condition ?
Thank you for whatever you can suggest.

Brief Answer:
Tremors are not related to peripheral neuropathy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Tremors of the right hand are not due to peripheral neuropathy. You need evaluation to rule out Parkinson's disease. Other common causes of tremors are essential tremors and anxiety. A detailed clinical examination by a neurologist usually sorts out the issue.
I sincerely hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
Best wishes,
