Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that arises when the peripheral nerves malfunction or get damaged. One of the leading causes of peripheral neuropathy is diabetes mellitus, but there can be many other reasons. From a huge number of homeopathic medicines for peripheral neuropathy, some of the majorly indicated homeopathic medicines for symptomatic treatment include Kali Phos, Arsenic Album, Picric Acid, Oxalic Acid, Hypericum, Causticum and Plumbum Met.
Homeopathic medicines for Peripheral Neuropathy.
Homeopathic Treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy
The homeopathic mode of treatment remains quite effective in managing peripheral neuropathy. The approach to homeopathic treatment for peripheral neuropathy is entirely symptomatic. The symptoms of the patient in a given case of peripheral neuropathy serve as the basis of homeopathic prescription. Every case of peripheral neuropathy needs to be thoroughly investigated to rule out the cause behind it. Every individual case requires a detailed case analysis to find the presenting symptoms unique to them. The homeopathic medicines for treating peripheral neuropathy are very safe to use among people of all age groups. A person should take homeopathic medicines for peripheral neuropathy under the supervision of a homeopathic physician and avoid self – medication.
Homeopathic Medicines for Peripheral Neuropathy
Kali Phos – Homeopathic Medicine for Numbness in Hands and Feet
Kali Phos is an effective, natural homeopathic medicine for numbness in hands and feet in cases of peripheral neuropathy. Kali Phos also helps in treating prickling sensation in hands and feet. Along with this a general fatigue or weakness is also present. A person needing Kali Phos tends to have a nervous, sensitive and irritable nature. Kali Phos is also indicated for cases of muscle weakness and paralysis.
Arsenic Album – Homeopathic Remedy for Burning Sensation in Hands/ Feet in Peripheral Neuropathy
Homeopathic medicine Arsenic Album is useful for treating burning sensation in the hands and feet in cases of peripheral neuropathy. The burning sensation may extend to arms and legs. Arsenic Album is also helpful for weakness and heaviness in the limbs in cases of peripheral neuropathy. Apart from the above, a tingling sensation in the fingers is also an indicating feature to use Arsenic Album.
Picric Acid – Natural Homeopathic Medicine for Pin-needle Sensation in Hand/Feet
Picric Acid is a natural homeopathic remedy used to treat a pin-needle like sensation in the hands or feet in cases of peripheral neuropathy. This sensation may be present in legs and arms. A weak, tired feeling in the limbs is also present. Exertion tends to make the complaint worse, and the limbs may get cold.
Oxalic Acid – Natural Homeopathic Treatment for Peripheral Neuropathy Causing Numbness and Tingling in Limbs
Use of natural medicine Oxalic Acid is considered in cases of peripheral neuropathy where there is numbness and tingling in the limbs. Sharp and excruciating pains in the limbs also point towards the use of this medicine.

Hypericum is a natural medicine prepared from the fresh plant named Hypericum Perforatum or St. John’s Wort. The natural order of this plant is Hypericaceae. The main indicating features to use Hypericum are numbness, tingling in hands or feet attended with burning pains. A crawling sensation may also be present in the hands and feet in some cases.
Causticum – Effective Homeopathic Remedy for Muscle Weakness in Peripheral Neuropathy

Plumbum Met offers a natural cure for peripheral neuropathy in which the patient experiences wasting or thinning of the muscles of the limbs. Paralysis of limbs is also treated well with this medicine.
Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
The nervous system in our body is divided into two major divisions – the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system includes the spinal cord and the brain. The peripheral nervous system consists of a network of nerves that lie outside the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system connects the nerves from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body (organs, limbs, and skin). The peripheral nervous system has 43 pairs of motor and sensory nerves. Peripheral nerves are of three types – sensory, motor and autonomic. The primary functions of these nerves are as follow:
Sensory nerves are responsible for transmission of signals like pain, touch, temperature and other sensations to the brain.
Motor nerves are held responsible for control of muscles.
Autonomic nerves are responsible for regulating autonomic functions of the body such as bladder function, digestion, body temperature, and blood pressure.
The peripheral neuropathy can be a mononeuropathy (damage to a single peripheral nerve) or a polyneuropathy (malfunctioning of multiple peripheral nerves at the same time). The symptoms of this disorder depend on the type of peripheral neuropathy.
Sensory neuropathy: The symptoms of sensory neuropathy are numbness, tingling, pricking, pin/needle sensation, hypersensitivity and burning sensation in the hands and feet. The symptoms can spread up the arm and leg.
Motor neuropathy: The symptoms of motor neuropathy include muscle weakness, paralysis, twitching/cramping of muscles, wasting/thinning of muscles, impaired balance, and coordination.
Autonomic neuropathy: The symptoms of autonomic neuropathy include rapid heart rate, bowel/bladder symptoms, diarrhea/constipation, blood pressure changes, increased/decreased sweating and erectile dysfunction in men.
Other reasons for peripheral neuropathy include an injury to nerves, low levels of vitamin B12, infections like shingles, Epstein-Barr, hepatitis C, and autoimmune diseases like Guillain-Barre syndrome, lupus, and necrotizing vasculitis. Excessive alcohol intake, tumors pressing on the nerves, chronic liver/kidney disease, thyroid disorders, certain medications including phenytoin, thalidomide, toxins like arsenic, mercury, inherited disorders like Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease are some other causes of peripheral neuropathy. In some cases, there may be no identifiable cause.

I am wondering if you can direct me in helping determine what might help my husband’s neuropathy induced by chemotherapy, He currently is getting acupuncture twice a week, but would seeing a homeopathic doctor provide some relief?
good point
thank-you
The symptoms are as described in Autonomic neuropathy and as per the details of different types of neuropathy, my symptoms are matching with Arsenic Album. Need your advice and the dosage if Arsenic Album is recommended.
Can numbness in the feet be cured
My friend is recovering from botulism. She is soon to have feeding tube removed but still has weakness, paralysis in legs arms, weak diaphragm…can you recommend a solution. Thank you
Namasthe Sir. This Smt V.Aruna suffering from numbness and stiffness and burning sensation in the soles of the two feet.I am 58 years. Female. I am diabetic since 2005 .But at present sugar levels are Normal. Please suggest remedies.
After chemotherapy a year ago I was left with a severe side effect of peripheral neuropathy. The gabapentin which was prescribed has not been very effective. A local homeopathic practitioner prescribed arsenic album which made no difference. I went back on an increased dose of gabapentin 300 three times a day. There is some improvement in my hands not being cold and pins and needles. The numbness in my legs, feet and hands is unchanged. Is it possible to take gabapentin and a homeopathic remedy? It takes ages to come off gabapentin safely.
Thanks

Hello, Dr. Sharma.
I am especially delighted for this opportunity to communicate with you on my peripheral neuropathy problems which have persisted for nearly a decade now.
I have gone through the passages above and will gladly appreciate some clarifications.
My problems encompass all the 7 fields or areas of homeopathic treatment (ie Khali Phos, Arsenic Album, Picnic Acid, Oxalic Acid, Hypericum, Causticum and Plumbum Met) that you offer. Can treatment for these areas be undertaken concurrently?
I started experiencing memory (and other) problems. Does your organization address such other problems?
How soon can one expect tangible results?
What is the mode of payment?

Hello Dr Sharma,
I had a neck lift done by a surgeon which includes cutting of nerves in front and behind the ears
and today, on the third day besides the area being numb the nerve pain has also a burning sensation pretty strong. What would you recommend for that.
My second question is: since a hip replacement about 5 years ago both of my feet started to become
numb starting with the toes more and more going down on the soles of the feet and in a couple of months ding the same again and again so that they definitely are somewhat numb but do not interfere with walking and hiking.
I would love your opinion for that

I have peripheral neuropathy plus vassilisis no nerve response from lower legs brain is not sure wher i am venious in sativity POLIO FROM FROM VACCINE IN 50’s
Is there a remedy the last description is. Me
Hi, I have developed peripheral neuropathy in my feet and legs. I think it is due to chronic IBS (diarrhoea) and a stay in hospital where I was given massive amounts of antibiotics. I was taken in to hospital because I’d had diarrhoea for about 10 days but because I tested positive for covid, they didn’t treat the diarrhoea they just launched into covid treatment and I was too poorly/weak to question their methods. I haven’t been the same since.
I was told that COVID attacks the peripheral nerves and thus aggravates them if you already had the condition. My peripheral nerves got a little worst after COVID but has not progressed since. Mine is a numbness but I still have feeling and can feel the touch of my fingers on my feet and not real heat is realized.
