When Chemo Affects Your Nerves.
Polyneuropathy often occurs as a result of chemotherapy and significantly impairs the quality of life of the affected cancer patients. Damage to the peripheral nerves caused by chemotherapy agents leads to paraesthesia, sensory disturbances and pain. Nerve endings and cells, or the insulating sheath around the nerve cell processes, are destroyed, which disrupts the exchange of substances and information between cells and tissue.
Chronic pain, sleep deprivation, inability to move, and secondary mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety disorders are common consequences of polyneuropathy.
Treatment is particularly challenging due to the sensitivity of patients and requires an individually tailored approach. This includes both medical and non-drug methods, each tailored to...

1. Pharmacological Treatment
Anticonvulsants
These medications are commonly used to treat nerve pain by reducing the excessive activity of nerves that send pain signals to the brain. However, long-term use can lead to tolerance and habituation, meaning higher doses may be required over time. Possible side effects include drowsiness and dizziness.
Antidepressants
Antidepressants are often prescribed to relieve nerve pain by altering the way the brain processes pain signals. Side effects may include dry mouth, constipation, urinary retention, and, in rare cases, heart rhythm disturbances. Prolonged use may also lead to tolerance development.
Analgesics
Simple pain relievers such as paracetamol can provide relief for occasional pain.
Risk: These medications are not specifically designed for nerve pain and may cause...
2. Nutrition
By far the most valuable and sustainable thing you can do for your body when you have burning feet is to eat the right food. You set the course from the inside out and you'll see what a difference it makes. Here are the most important cornerstones of your diet.
Omega-3 fatty acids:
These anti-inflammatory fatty acids are found in oily fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines, as well as in flaxseed, chia seeds and walnuts.
Leafy green vegetables:
Spinach, kale and other dark green leafy vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals that are important for nerve health.
Whole grain products:
Whole grains such as whole wheat bread, brown rice, and oats are...
3. Cold therapy
Let's move on to our absolute favourite, because applying cold to polyneuropathy has outstanding effects on the nervous system, which can help to directly alleviate the symptoms.
To understand how this works, it helps to look at the body's physiological responses to cold.
Slowing of nerve conduction velocity:
Cold slows down the speed of transmission of nerve impulses. In the extremities, this can lead to a reduction in unpleasant sensations such as tingling, burning or pain. The nerves are less "reactive", which can lead to a certain calming of the symptoms.
Reduction of the inflammatory response:
Although inflammation is not necessarily a primary factor in polyneuropathy, an accompanying inflammatory response in the legs...
RELAXATION THROUGH COOLING
As described above, the application of cold can effectively alleviate the unpleasant and painful symptoms of polyneuropathy. This type of therapy is therefore increasingly used in medicine - e.g. in the form of cryochambers or cooling ointments.
This is where our Kalter Bruder® Relax gel makes a difference. Specially formulated for a long-lasting cooling effect, its unique recipe harnesses the fresh gel of the aloe vera plant and arnica, both known for their anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. Key ingredients like menthol and camphor enhance the cooling effect, helping to relieve pain and reduce swelling.
Kalter Bruder® offers a practical and efficient way to leverage the benefits of cold therapy. Its cooling effect delivers gentle, consistent deep cooling without harming the skin or...
