Symptoms of somatic nerve damage can include muscle weakness, atrophy, and loss of coordination, as the nerves responsible for voluntary muscle control are affected. Patients may also experience sensory changes, such as numbness, tingling, or pain in the affected areas. Additionally, reflexes may be diminished or absent, leading to impaired responses to stimuli. These symptoms can vary depending on the specific nerves involved and the extent of the damage.
The corneal reflex is a protective reflex involving the sensory branch of the trigeminal nerve (V) and the motor branch of the facial nerve (VII). When the cornea is touched, nerve impulses trigger a blinking reflex to protect the eye from potential damage.
Somatic sensory nerve impulses from the head travel through the cranial nerves, such as the trigeminal nerve (V), facial nerve (VII), and glossopharyngeal nerve (IX). These nerves carry sensory information to the brainstem, specifically to the trigeminal nerve nuclei, which process and relay the information to higher brain regions for further processing and perception.
Nerve Damage was created in 2004.

Examples of somatic radiation damage include skin burns and cataracts caused by exposure to ionizing radiation.

Are you trying to heal or inflict nerve damage?
These are nerves in animals. They include central and peripheral; peripheral include somatic and autonomic.
somatic pain
The vagus nerve is located in the arm of a human. The lap band fill procedure can cause nerve damage to this nerve.
it depends on what the nerve damage was from and how much your body has healed
