Peripheral Nerve Disorders
Diagnosis and treatment of peripheral nervous system conditions
Peripheral nervous system disorders cause numbness, pain, weakness, and dysfunction in the extremities. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent disease progression and significantly improve symptoms.
At our practice, evaluation includes detailed clinical examination combined with electromyography (EMG/NCS) for accurate localization and characterization of the damage. Katerina Saroukou has specialized training in clinical neurophysiology.
Treatment is individualized based on the cause: medication for pain, management of underlying conditions (e.g., diabetes), physical therapy, and when necessary, referral for surgical decompression.
