The chicken would be able to walk with nerve damage in their foot, because it still has use of the rest of its leg. It is likely that there would be some impairment.

Which cranial nerve is damaged due to a medial strabismus injury?

Medial strabismus is caused by cranial nerve damage. There is no such thing as a medial strabismus injury that causes a nerve to be damaged, rather the damaged nerve causes strabismus. A strabismus refers to the misalignment of the eyes or a deviation in gaze. A medial strabismus would be the result of damage to the abducens nerve (cranial nerve VI). CNVI innervates the lateral rectus muscle of the eye, which pulls the eye laterally. Therefore, if this nerve is damaged, the eye is no longer able to pull laterally, and the tonus of the medial rectus muscle acts unopposed. This pulls the eye medially, causing medial strabismus.


Are spinal nerves able to repair themselves?

If the myelin sheath is able to repair and regenerate itself, normal nerve function may return. However, if the sheath is severely damaged, the underlying nerve fiber can die.Because nerve fibers in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) rarely regenerate, such damage is irreversible.


What is the cure for nerve blockage in right leg?

A nerve block usually means that someone was given a drug to block the pain in an area. I would assume that a nerve block might thus mean numbness due to nerve damage. Nerve Damage is neuropathy. The myelin sheath of the nerve has been damaged and thus you get numbness, tingling and pain. The body needs B1 in order to be able to repair the damage to the nerve. There can be many reasons for this damage - diabetes high blood sugar, chemotherapy, trauma, lack of B12, etc. However, most supplements that you buy is water soluable and thus washes out of your body before it can be used. It is becoming known that certain forms of B vitamins are fat soluable and thus the body can hold onto it long enough to use it. In addition, B12 and some other ingredients will help in the repair. There is a formula that does this called the Nerve Support Formula - www.realfoodnutrients.com/neu/home.htm
