What else can I help you with?
Could an injury to the wrist cause a piched nerve to the cervical area?
Thank you for your question. My answer is "No." However, an injury to the cervical spinal nerves or those even lower, like an injury to the axillary (armpit) nerves or those in the elbow region can cause the symptoms of a pinched nerve with pain in the wrist. Pain would be located at the nerve injury or down the limb from the injured nerve. The only way a wrist injury could possibly cause a pinched nerve to your cervical region is if your wrist injury caused you to hold your wrist in a position that would strain your neck and pinch the nerves there. Very difficult to do.
What happens to the brain when a nerve breaks?
When a nerve "breaks," it typically refers to nerve damage or injury. This can disrupt the communication between the brain and the affected body part, leading to symptoms like numbness, weakness, or pain. The brain can undergo changes in response to the injury, such as altering its signaling pathways to compensate for the damage.
What is the difference between foot drop due to sciatic nerve injury and common peroneal nerve injury?
no difference except for the sensory supply. if you damage your sciatic nerve, the sensory and muscle supply above the knee also lost as the sciatic nerve is damage. This is because common peroneal nerve is the brach of sciatic and it is at level of your knee. Only muscle and sensory below the knee level will be affected if you damage the common peroneal nerve. However the condition of foot drop would be the same
What is the nerve in the medial epicondyle that makes your hand tingle?

Which nerve runs in proximity to the medial epicondyle of the humerus?
The ulnar nerve runs in proximity to the medial epicondyle of the humerus. It passes behind the medial epicondyle in a groove called the cubital tunnel. Injury or compression of the ulnar nerve in this area can result in symptoms such as pain, tingling, and weakness in the hand and fingers.
Can a fall damage a nerve next to the eye?
Yes, a fall can potentially damage a nerve next to the eye, such as the infraorbital nerve. Trauma from a fall can lead to nerve compression, contusion, or injury, causing symptoms like numbness, pain, or loss of function in the area supplied by the affected nerve. If you suspect nerve damage from a fall, it is important to seek medical evaluation for proper diagnosis and treatment.
What is neuropraxia?
Neuropraxia is a type of nerve injury characterized by a temporary loss of function, usually due to compression or stretching of the nerve without any structural damage. It often results in symptoms like weakness, numbness, or tingling in the affected area but typically resolves on its own within days to weeks. This condition is considered the mildest form of peripheral nerve injury, and recovery usually occurs as the nerve regenerates and normal function is restored.
