Neuropathy Testing in New Mexico

Neuropathy testing can help diagnose small fiber neuropathy by testing a small sample of your epidermal nerve’s fiber density, often referred to as ENFD. Small fiber neuropathy is a type of peripheral nerve disease that affects the small-diameter nerve fibers in the skin. Skin biopsy measuring epidermal nerve fiber density is a well-established method used to help evaluate small fiber neuropathy. Common causes of small fiber neuropathy are diabetes (types 1 and 2), HIV, vibratory trauma, amyloidosis/monoclonal gammopathy, alcohol abuse, pharmacologic toxins, solvent exposure, and/or idiopathic neuropathy. Your Foot & Ankle Specialists specialize in neuropathy testing and can evaluate your symptoms and work with you on a treatment plan.
