Condition
Small Fiber Neuropathy
A one-page care plan for patients with Small Fiber Neuropathy, covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Education & Expectations, Nutrition, Next Steps & Numbers, Consistency, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.
In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I know damaged small nerves can cause pain or numbness, often starting in my feet.
- I ask about treatable causes, such as diabetes or low B12; sometimes no cause is found
- I check numb skin and both feet daily for cuts, blisters, or burns.
- I avoid heating pads on numb skin and check bathwater with a thermometer.
