Treatment of polyneuropathy abroad, in clinics in Germany, Israel, Finland and Switzerland, is based on the use of comprehensive programs using the most gentle but effective techniques.

Treatment is prescribed individually for each patient.

Diagnosis of polyneuropathy

The following diagnostic methods are used in the treatment of polyneuropathy abroad:

  • MRI scan;
  • neurological tests — detect the presence of nerve damage due to a systemic disease;
  • electroneuromyography — determines the speed of passage of a nerve impulse to the muscles and evaluates how severely the function of the nerves is impaired.;
  • blood test — helps to determine the presence of toxins, heavy metal salts;
  • A biopsy allows you to assess the condition of a nerve and is used for differential diagnosis, that is, to distinguish polyneuropathy from another type.

Features of treatment of polyneuropathy abroad

Treatment of polyneuropathy abroad begins with finding out and getting rid of the main causes that led to this condition. In diabetes mellitus, for example, medications are prescribed to control glucose levels. In case of poisoning, the body is cleansed of harmful substances. Alcoholism and drug addiction, which are the main causes of polyneuropathy, are the most difficult to treat. But foreign specialists are successfully coping with this task, thanks to modern techniques, equipment and medicines.

In addition, the treatment of polyneuropathy abroad also involves therapy aimed at specific symptoms. When blood pressure rises, patients are prescribed antihypertensive drugs, painkillers for muscle pain, and special orthoses for muscle weakness.

Additional methods of treatment of polyneuropathy abroad

Physiotherapy is also performed in foreign clinics during the recovery period. It promotes effective treatment and relieves pain symptoms well.

Most often, patients are prescribed acupuncture — it helps to get rid of seizures and paralysis. Massage and manual therapy are used to stimulate the muscles. Mud treatment and SPA treatments normalize the transmission of nerve impulses and the general condition of the patient.
