What else can I help you with?
How can an injury to a peripheral nerve cause loss of both sensory and motor function?
An injury to a peripheral nerve causes loss of both sensory and motor functions since that specific part is supplied by the motor pathway such as spinothalalmic and corticospinal.
What is the function of a Tibial Nerve?
The Tibial nerve provides motor and sensory innervation to the posterior compartment of the leg and sole of the feet. Injury to the nerve could produce loss in flexion of the toes and feet.
What causes motor nerve damage?
Motor nerve damage can be caused by a variety of factors, including injury, diseases such as multiple sclerosis or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), infections, genetic conditions, or exposure to toxins. Damage to motor nerves can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, and impaired movement.
What is the function of the medial nerve?
The median nerve provides sensory and motor function to the hand and forearm. It innervates muscles involved in flexion of the wrist and fingers, as well as sensation to the palm and fingers. Injury to the median nerve can result in weakness, numbness, and tingling in the hand and fingers.
Do you still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury?
Yes, you may still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury.
What is the motor point of a nerve?
The nerve motor points is a large muscle mass of shoulders, arms, and legs, striking with leg or hand. Some types of nerve points are superficial peroneal nerve motor point, tibial nerve motor point, common peroneal nerve motor point, and femoral nerve motor point.
What does motor nerve mean?
A motor nerve is part of the nervous system that moves muscles.
The same as a motor nerve?
A motor nerve is connected to a muscle or gland and causes it to work.
Can a nerve Cell replace itself after injury?
One of two thing can happen (depending on just how damaged). If it is a sensory nerve, that will not carry sensory impulses to the CNS. You may have a numb feeling in a small area or a very large area. If it is a motor nerve, you may not be able to move a muscle (or a group of muscles). That really is paralyzed means.
What is the opposite of motor nerve?
A motor nerve falls under the category of efferent nerves, its opposite would be an afferent nerve, usually called a sensory nerve.
Can injury to tibial nerve be repaired?
Injury to the tibial nerve can sometimes be repaired through surgical intervention, such as nerve decompression or repair. The success of nerve repair can vary depending on the extent and location of the injury. Rehabilitation therapy may also be necessary to help restore function and sensation.
What nerve is a mixed cranial nerve that conducts sensory impulses from and motor impulses from and motor impulses to the thoracic and abdominal viscera?
vagus nerve
