Peripheral Neuropathy from Multiple Sclerosis

At Nupera, we understand that living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) comes with enough challenges—peripheral neuropathy shouldn’t add to the burden. Whether nerve damage is directly caused by MS or develops due to long-term inflammation and immune activity, there are real, natural ways to support nerve healing and reduce discomfort.

What Is Peripheral Neuropathy in MS?

Peripheral neuropathy refers to nerve damage outside of the brain and spinal cord. While MS primarily affects the central nervous system, people with MS may also experience peripheral nerve damage due to chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, medication side effects, or nutrient deficiencies

This type of neuropathy often affects the arms, hands, legs, or feet, causing symptoms like tingling, burning, numbness, weakness, or sharp pain. It can coexist with MS symptoms, making it difficult to distinguish—but also critical to treat correctly.

Common Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy in MS

If you’re living with MS and notice changes in sensation or motor function, you may be experiencing peripheral neuropathy. Common symptoms include:

  • Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
  • Burning, stabbing, or electric-shock sensations
  • Muscle weakness, especially in the lower limbs
  • Increased sensitivity to touch or temperature
  • Trouble with walking or coordination
  • Cramping, twitching, or a sense of “pins and needles”
  • Autonomic issues like dizziness, digestive irregularities, or bladder dysfunction

Some individuals experience small fiber neuropathy, affecting the tiny sensory nerves responsible for temperature and pain detection—leading to surface-level discomfort that’s often difficult to treat.

Why Does Peripheral Neuropathy Happen in MS?

While MS primarily targets the brain and spinal cord, several mechanisms may contribute to peripheral nerve damage:

  • Chronic inflammation and immune activity spilling over into the peripheral nervous system
  • Nutritional deficiencies, particularly B12 and other B vitamins, linked to MS medications or malabsorption
  • Prolonged use of certain MS treatments
  • Oxidative stress and nerve degeneration related to disease progression
  • Sedentary lifestyle or reduced circulation due to mobility challenges

By identifying and addressing these contributing factors, it’s possible to support your body’s natural healing capacity.

Risk Factors for MS-Related Peripheral Neuropathy

These factors don’t guarantee neuropathy will occur, but they can increase susceptibility and may guide targeted, natural treatment.

Certain risk factors can increase the likelihood of developing peripheral neuropathy if you have MS:

  • Duration and progression of MS

  • Vitamin deficiencies (especially B12, B6, and folate)

  • Use of certain immunosuppressive or disease-modifying drugs

  • Age over 50

  • Autoimmune comorbidities

  • Reduced physical activity or muscle use

Managing and Treating Peripheral Neuropathy in MS

You don’t have to accept nerve pain or loss of sensation as a permanent part of MS. While traditional options often focus solely on symptom relief, Nupera offers a natural solution designed to work with your body’s healing potential.

Our proven 2-step treatment supports nerve repair by calming inflammation and restoring what the nervous system needs to thrive—even in the complex environment of MS.

Here’s how our treatment works:

  • Reduce inflammation that worsens nerve sensitivity

  • Stimulate nerve regeneration to rebuild damaged pathways

  • Replenish critical nutrients needed for optimal nerve function

Whether you’re experiencing small fiber neuropathy, autonomic nerve dysfunction, or generalized nerve pain as part of your MS journey, our comprehensive, non-invasive care model focuses on the root causes—not just masking the symptoms.
