Often, neuropathy is caused by spinal cord compression. Get it checked out. I speak from experience.
"Yes, spinal cord compression is a well-documented cause of neuropathic pain and nerve dysfunction. When conditions like spinal stenosis, bone spurs, or herniated discs compress your spinal cord or nerve roots, it disrupts normal nerve signaling, leading to neuropathy symptoms.How Spinal Compression Causes NeuropathyPinching Nerve Roots: When the spaces in your spine narrow, it directly pinches the nerve roots exiting the spinal column.Disrupting Blood Flow: Compression can reduce blood supply to the nerves, triggering inflammation, ischemia, and subsequent damage.Radiating Symptoms: This type of damage creates neuropathic symptoms (such as burning pain, stabbing sensations, numbness, or tingling) that radiate down your limbs."

@chrisanon I have spinal stenosis at the base of my spine, but my neurosurgeon says it's not severe enough to be the cause of the neuropathy.
