Paresthesia is something that we have all experienced. If you’ve ever slept on your arm strangely and awoke with pins and needles, that’s paresthesia. It’s unpleasant, and it’s not necessarily transient for chronic patients.
A widespread myth is that paresthesia is produced by shutting off blood flow to a particular location. Sleeping on your arm or sitting with your legs crossed for an extended period puts your nerve in a position it does not like to be in. Healthy people can stand and move around until the feeling returns to their dead leg; however, if this occurs frequently, you should not ignore your symptoms.
Chronic paresthesia might signal an underlying medical condition, such as nerve injury, or it can be an early warning sign of a central nervous system disorder, such as a stroke.
It’s difficult to lose faith in your health and body, and living in pain or discomfort is even more challenging.
Paresthesia could be caused by the following:
The etiology determines the appropriate treatment. If it is only transitory paresthesia, it may resolve itself. However, prolonged paresthesia requires medical treatment. Assume a patient sustains an injury as a result of repetitive actions; lifestyle adjustments and physical therapy may help alleviate the problem.
Cutting-edge research investigates the efficacy of using stem cells to treat all of these illnesses. The results vary depending on the condition. Scientists at HSCI are looking into how cellular therapy can help cure diabetes. These cells’ anti-inflammatory capabilities are what make them such an excellent treatment for a wide range of illnesses.
Cell therapy reduces inflammation. In doing so, they allow the body to progress to the next step of healing: regeneration. Recently, interesting research has surfaced employing cell therapy to reset the immune systems of MS patients, so their immune systems would not assault their myelin.
