Pamamanhid and tusok-tusok giving you a hard time moving? Learn about fast relief from these nerve damage symptoms in as early as 2 weeks!

MANILA, Philippines — In almost two years, we have shifted our work arrangements and everyday habits dramatically. It had been rough in the early parts of the pandemic, but Filipinos, true to form, found ways to adapt, not letting their hard work go to waste.

While Filipinos are known for their perseverance and toughness, their nerves are still prone to damage. At some point, the nerves can give out due to long hours of work that can strain your hands, feet, and back. This involves repetitive use of the hands or being on one’s feet for long periods while out and about.

This, including unhealthy lifestyle choices, nutrition deficiency, aging and degenerative illnesses such as diabetes can lead to peripheral neuropathy or nerve damage—and your hands and feet may be the most vulnerable.

Know the symptoms of nerve damage

Early detection of nerve damage symptoms is key.

Nerve damage symptoms manifest in different ways that may make it hard for you to get moving and carry out usual tasks and daily responsibilities.

To protect your productivity, the quality of your sleep and overall nerve health, being aware that you are at risk of nerve damage is important. The symptoms of neuropathy can be various: 

• Tusok-tusok or tingling/prickling sensation – This is characterized by that prickling sensation from pins and needles that you can feel on your hands and feet.
• Pamamanhid or numbness – This mostly occurs on the hands and feet, where patients may not notice injuries such as a small cut on the hands or feet.
• Pangangalay or weakness – Some sample scenarios include not being able to sustain or exert much weight, pressure, or strain. (e.g. having a hard time opening a screw cap)

The truth is that the symptoms of nerve damage are more commonplace than you would think. In fact, in a P&G consumer study conducted with a sample size of 240 men and women from Metro Manila, 99% of the respondents aged 35 and up answered that they are already experiencing at least one of these said symptoms.¹

In a separate study, nerve damage can even be asymptomatic and may be more prevalent than one might assume. It also reveals four key patient groups exhibiting B vitamin deficiency who are the most likely to be at risk of experiencing the symptoms^2-4:

• 50% of diabetes sufferers
• 7% of those aged >55 years old
• 34% of the elderly (about >80 years old)
• 46% of patients with chronic alcoholism

Making the right choices

You can also help in reinforcing relief and recovery by developing healthy habits daily. According to the Mayo Clinic⁵, these habits can support nerve health:

• Eating healthy – This means incorporating fruits, green, leafy and fiber-rich foods as well as whole grains and lean proteins into your diet.
• Daily exercise – Find time to add physical activities that amount to at least 30 minutes to your daily routine at least 3 times a week.
• Avoid harmful toxins – This means reducing smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages, or better yet, stopping them altogether.

Developing healthy habits daily can reinforce relief and recovery from peripheral neuropathy.
