Treat the cause: There are many causes of neuropathy such as diabetes, smoking, vit. B12 & D deficiencies, thyroid disease, side effects of medication. First thing to do is to make sure you have been properly investigated so that the cause is known. If the cause is known but treatment is still not effective then, talk with your doctor for options.

Many Things.: Not all neuropathies are the same and their underlying causes are many. Before effective treatment can proceed, the reason for the neuropathy must be discovered. Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all remedy. You will need the expertise of a specialist who is experienced in not only diagnosing the specific neuropathy but also in designing the most effective treatment.

See details: First of all see if there is a definable cause such as diabetes and treat that. Gabapentin or Lyrica (pregabalin) can help.
