Condition

Alcoholic Neuropathy

Affects

Alcoholic neuropathy is a severe condition caused by excessive alcohol use. Damage to the nerves leads to unusual sensations in the limbs, reduced mobility, and loss of some bodily functions. Recognizing the symptoms and seeking treatment early can reduce the risk of permanent disability.

A person who drinks alcohol in excess may start to feel a tingling sensation in their limbs. This happens when alcohol has damaged the peripheral nerves. These nerves connect the brain and spinal cord to the muscles, limbs, and sensory organs.

Alcoholic neuropathy shows itself in different ways. Some may experience only one symptom, while others experience several. People who drink heavily on a regular basis and have one or more of the following symptoms in any limbs should see a doctor:

  • Cramps
  • Loss of movement
  • Muscle atrophy
  • Muscle spasms or contractions
  • Loss of sensation
  • Pins and needles
