The arm reflex, often referred to as the arm withdrawal reflex, is a rapid, involuntary response that occurs when the skin or underlying tissues of the arm are stimulated by a painful or potentially harmful stimulus. This reflex action involves sensory neurons detecting the stimulus and transmitting signals to the spinal cord, which then sends a quick signal back to the muscles in the arm to withdraw from the source of pain. It serves as a protective mechanism, helping to minimize injury. This reflex is part of the body's broader neurological responses to danger.
