Chemotherapy Induced Neuropathy
While chemotherapy can kill cancer cells it can, often, damage and strain the nerves that connect a person’s muscles, skin and internal organs to the spine, resulting in a condition known as chemotherapy induced neuropathy.
There are numerous types of chemotherapy drugs, that can damage nerves in different ways. Some cause damage to the smaller sensory nerves in the feet and hands, while others cause more severe damage to the entire peripheral nervous system.
