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
The nerve carrying motor information causing right leg flexion when stepping on a nail would be the sciatic nerve. This nerve is responsible for providing motor function to the muscles of the lower limb, including the hamstrings which are involved in flexing the leg in response to a painful stimulus like stepping on a nail.

I presume you mean blockage of the artery in the leg. Safest procedure will be angioplasty, dilatation and stenting
sciatic nerve
The sciatic nerve is the major nerve that innervates the extensor muscles of the leg, particularly the tibialis anterior muscle. It is a large nerve that branches into the common fibular nerve and the tibial nerve, both of which supply various muscles in the leg.
Yes, the main nerve that runs on the inside of the leg is the saphenous nerve. It is a branch of the femoral nerve and provides sensory innervation to the skin on the inner aspect of the leg and foot.
Sciatica is pain, tingling, or numbness produced by an irritation of the nerve roots that lead to the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is formed by the nerve roots coming out of the spinal cord into the lower back. It goes down through the buttock, then its branches extend down the back of the leg to the ankle and foot.

The posterior side of the thigh, leg, and foot are served by the tibial nerve. The tibial nerve is a branch of the sciatic nerve.

The nerve that supplies sensation and movement to the leg is called the sciatic nerve. It is the largest nerve in the body and branches into smaller nerves that innervate different parts of the leg.
There are numerous nerves in the leg, including the sciatic nerve, femoral nerve, and tibial nerve. These nerves innervate different areas of the leg, providing sensation and motor function.
