Symptoms of minor neuritis

Peripheral neuritis is a relatively common disease. If you have peripheral neuritis, it will often lead to limb weakness and pain. At this time, the skin color of the fingers will feel uneven. In addition, some granular substances will often appear in the palm of your hand, and the nails will appear dark yellow and dull. It often causes symptoms such as numbness and swelling at the ends of the fingers. Let us understand the specific content.

Symptoms of mild neuritis

1. Weakness in the limbs: Lack of strength is one of the characteristics of inflammation, especially weakness in the limbs. When you feel weakness in your limbs, consider whether it is the effect of inflammation of the peripheral nerves.

2. Fear of pain: If there is inflammation in the peripheral nerves, you will definitely be afraid of pain, whether it is your fingers or your skin, as long as you touch it, it will hurt (more than usual).

3. Uneven skin tone: Look at the skin tone of your fingers. Is it even? Check if your blood color is balanced. If your skin color is uneven, it indicates one problem: it is peripheral neuritis.

4. The palm of your hand is granular: Open your palm and see if there are any granules (usually red and white). If so, there is basically a problem of peripheral neuritis.

5. The nails are dark red and dull: Check if there is anything abnormal about the nails? Half red and half white? Or is it dark red and dull? If any of the above occurs, it is a symptom of peripheral nerve inflammation.

Causes

1. Poisoning such as heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury, phosphorus, drugs such as furacillin, isoniazid, streptomycin, phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, vincristine, and organic compounds such as organophosphorus pesticides. 2. Nutritional metabolic disorders such as vitamin B deficiency, diabetes, uremia, chronic gastrointestinal diseases, pregnancy, etc. 3. The infection is often accompanied or secondary to various acute and chronic infections, such as dysentery, tuberculosis, infectious hepatitis, typhoid fever, mumps, etc. A few cases may be caused by direct invasion of peripheral nerves by pathogens, such as leprosy neuritis. 4. Allergic reactions, such as neuritis after serum treatment or vaccination. 5. Others such as connective tissue diseases, hereditary diseases such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, hereditary ataxia peripheral neuritis, hereditary sensory radiculoneuropathy, etc. In addition, various cancers of the body can also cause polyneuritis, and may occur several months before the primary lesion shows clinical symptoms, so this should be a cause for concern. Except for inflammatory changes in peripheral nerves caused by a few causes (such as leprosy), pathological changes are mainly segmental demyelination and axonal degeneration of peripheral nerves, or both. A few cases may be accompanied by changes in the neuromuscular junction.
