What is the skin area along a central nerve pathway?
The skin area along a central nerve pathway is known as a dermatome. Dermatomes are specific regions of skin that are supplied sensation by a single spinal nerve. Each spinal nerve innervates a specific dermatome, allowing for the distribution of sensory information throughout the body.

What is Trancutaneous electrical Nerves Stimulator?
TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL NERVE STIMULATOR IS ANY STIMULI (ELECTRICAL) THAT INDUCES THE THRESHOLD RESPONSE NECESSARY FOR NERVE 'firing' OR SENDING AN IMPULSE ALONG A NEUROLOGICAL PATHWAY ORIGINATING ON THE SURFACE OF THE SCAN AND TRAVELING THRU (the skin) hence the term trans or across (transcutaneous) the skin.
What affects the speed of nerve transmission and how is it measured?
The speed of nerve transmission can be affected by factors such as the myelination of the nerve fiber, temperature, and the diameter of the nerve fiber. It is measured using techniques such as nerve conduction studies, where electrodes are placed on the skin to measure the speed of electrical impulses along a nerve.
What nerve effects the inner knee?
The saphenous nerve is a branch of the femoral nerve that supplies sensation to the inner knee. It runs down the leg, providing sensation to the skin along the inner aspect of the knee and lower leg.
What is TENS?
TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. In TENS therapy, electrical devices are used to send stimulating pulses across the surface of the skin and along the nerve strands.
Sensory input from the skin would follow the?
Sensory input from the skin follows the pathway of sensory neurons, which transmit signals from receptors in the skin to the spinal cord and then to the brain. This input is processed in various regions of the brain to interpret sensations such as touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
What is the function of a nerve ending?
At the end of a nerve, there is a synapse, which transfers the signal on to the next nerve until it reaches it's destination - ie. the brain or a muscle. Nerve endings are what we feel the world around us with. Nerve endings are in every part of your body and they are always sensing what is going on around you. They feel the chair against your bottom, the key board under your finger tips, etc.
Can I get Shinges in my foot?
Yes. The virus hides in the nerve cells near the spine and when activated, travel down the nerves to the skin. The act of moving causes an irritation and burning sensation along the nerve tract.
What is the function of the supratrochlear?
The supratrochlear nerve is a small sensory nerve that branches from the frontal nerve, which is a division of the ophthalmic nerve (V1) of the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). Its primary function is to provide sensory innervation to the skin of the forehead and the upper eyelid. It plays a key role in transmitting sensory information, such as touch and temperature, from these areas to the central nervous system.
What is the nerve of the skin?
trigemenal nerve
What are skin nerve muscle cells classified to?
nerve tissue
