What are stretched nerves?

Answer 1

A Strectched nerve is pretty much what it sounds like. A nerve being stretched. Apparently there is something called "nerve stretching", that's therapudic in some way, but im referring to the result of surgery, on an injury.

I had was in a car accident that caused me to shatter my pelvic bone, and when I had surgery on it, They stretched a nerve which now causes me ridiculous pain in my foot. The pain in a way is good, because it means I have feeling in my foot, whereas if I were to completely sever the nerve There would be none. But because I strecthed it, The feeling is still coming back and in a very painful way. 6 months is the expected time for it to heal completely.

I hope I answered your question.
