Effect of low level laser irradiation in the management of diabetic neuropathy induced symptoms and pain

Abstract

The intensity of morbidity and mortality due to diabetes and its potential newlinecomplications are vast and cause healthcare burdens on both families and newlinesociety. Diabetic neuropathy induced symptoms and pain differ from other newlinesymptoms and pain. There are many pharmacological and Nonpharmacological newlineagents available to treat other symptoms and pain. But these newlineare not successful in treating diabetic neuropathy induced symptoms and newlinepain. There remains a paucity in the field of physiotherapy for the treatment of newlinediabetic neuropathy induced symptoms and pain. As it is a burden on the families and society on medical care, it is necessary to address the problem newlinewith physiotherapy. Low level laser therapy has shown many results in the newlinemanagement of tissue repair, nerve regeneration and reduce pain in various newlineconditions. Hence this study focused on the effect of low level laser irradiation newlinein the management of diabetic neuropathy induced symptoms and pain newlineThis study has focused on the symptoms and pain in newlinethe participants suffering with DPN. It has shown much improvement in newlinereducing the symptoms and pain in the participants with DPN. LLLIT relatively newlinecost effective and more beneficial to the participants with no side effects. So newlinethis treatment can be used by many physiotherapists to reduce the symptoms newlineand pain in participants suffering with DPN. The present study highlights the newlineusage of Ga As laser as an adjunctive treatment modality for diabetic newlineneuropathy in clinical practice. It is noteworthy that this work may help in newlineenlightening the role of physiotherapist in management of diabetic newlineneuropathy. As there is no satisfactory treatment which could revert this newlinecondition to normal, the physiotherapist could help the diabetics in improving newlinethe quality of life by reducing neuropathy symptoms and pain. newline
