Paraesthesia is an indication of an abnormality that impacts the sensory pathways at any point from the peripheral sensory nervous system right up to the sensory cortex. The essential tool for the diagnosis of this condition is obtaining a concise patient history. This history must accurately reflect the patient's experience, including the provoking and alleviating factors, along with any existing concurrent conditions, such as diabetes and all treatments that might potentially lead to neuropathies. Treatment is based on the relevant diagnosis and mechanism to address the cause. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson discusses paraesthesia, covering its causes, investigations and treatment.
