Understanding and Managing Chemo-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Certain chemotherapy drugs can cause chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), which is one of the most common side effects of treatment. Chemotherapy treatments cause peripheral neuropathy by damaging the nerves in the fingers, hands, arms, legs, and feet. This can lead to symptoms including pain, numbness, tingling, and difficulty with mobility, which can greatly impact one’s quality of life. Join Dr. Anasheh Halabi, an Assistant Clinical Professor in Neuromuscular Medicine at UCLA who specializes in neuropathies and is a leading specialist in caring for patients with neurotoxicities related to cancer drugs.
