Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is a type of damage to the nervous system. It occurs when there is a problem with a child's peripheral nervous system, the network of nerves that transmits information from the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) to the rest of the body. It often causes weakness, numbness and pain, usually in the hands and feet but can also affect other areas of the body.
