The trachea is primarily innervated by the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X), which provides parasympathetic fibers that regulate secretions and bronchoconstriction. Additionally, sympathetic innervation comes from the sympathetic trunk, which helps to modulate blood flow and bronchial dilation. Sensory innervation is primarily through the recurrent laryngeal nerve, a branch of the vagus, which conveys sensation from the mucosal lining of the trachea.

Is the sciatic nerve the only nerve with blood supply?

No, the sciatic nerve is not the only nerve with a blood supply. All nerves in the body have a blood supply to maintain their function and health, typically provided by small blood vessels called vasa nervorum. These vessels supply oxygen and nutrients to the nerve tissues. Therefore, while the sciatic nerve is one of the largest nerves, it is not unique in having a blood supply.
