Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy is a disease in which the immune system progressively affects the protective covering of the peripheral nerves, altering the transmission of signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Its course is usually slow and prolonged.
Common symptoms:
- Gradual weakness in the arms and legs
- Tingling or numbness
- Difficulty walking or holding objects
When to see a doctor? When weakness or changes in sensation last for weeks or progress little by little, an evaluation is warranted.
Which specialist treats it? The neurologist is the one who studies this condition with specific tests of nerve function. If you notice a progressive loss of strength, assessing the condition with this professional allows for proper follow-up guidance.
