A pacemaker itself is unlikely to cause neuropathy directly, as it primarily regulates heart rhythms rather than affecting the nervous system. However, complications related to the implantation of a pacemaker, such as nerve damage or improper positioning, could potentially lead to neuropathy in rare cases. Other underlying health conditions that necessitate a pacemaker might also contribute to neuropathic symptoms. If neuropathy occurs, it is essential to consult a healthcare provider to identify the underlying cause.
