Neurectomy is surgical removal of a nerve
Neurorrhaphy is a surgical procedure that involves suturing together the ends of a severed or injured nerve. This technique aims to restore continuity and function to the nerve, promoting regeneration and recovery of sensory and motor functions. Successful neurorrhaphy can significantly improve outcomes for patients with nerve injuries.

The median nerve, supplies the lateral half of the arm, up to 1/2 of the fourth(ring) finger, while the ulnar nerve supplies the medial side of the arm, up to the pinky finger and the other 1/2 of the ring finger
Anklyglossia is a condition where the lingual frenum is too short. The frenum is a small cord-like tissue that attaches the front of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. To correct the condition, a dentist simply applies a small amount of local anesthetic to the area, cuts the frenum, and places a suture to prevent the two severed ends from growing back together. It is a very easy procedure, and the post-op recovery is very short.
The ulnar nerve runs along the ulna bone in the arm. It starts at the shoulder and ends at the pinky finger.
Common neurotransmitters released at the ends of nerve cells include serotonin, dopamine, acetylcholine, and glutamate. These chemical messengers play a key role in transmitting signals between nerve cells and regulating various physiological functions in the body.
A motor neuron is a nerve, specifically it is a nerve that originates in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and ends in its target organ (muscle, gland etc).
The olfactory nerve, responsible for the sense of smell, ends in the olfactory bulb located in the brain, specifically in the olfactory cortex. This is where the nerve impulses triggered by odors are processed and interpreted.
Your vet is the best source of advice on this procedure. Most vets will accept questions like this one by phone without charging you. Assuming the dog is very compliant, and the vet says the suture has been in long enough, it can safely be removed at home. Ideally, you'd have a pair of suture scissors which are specially designed to get under the suture without risk of puncturing the dog's skin. They have a special hook on the lower blade a bit like a bird's beak. If you don't have suture scissors, you'll have to be especially careful that your dog doesn't move during the procedure. Gently pull the suture away from the skin by one of the loose ends with a pair of tweezers. Snip the suture thread on one side, just below the knot (between the knot and the skin). Once the suture is cut on one side, it can be pulled out of the skin. Dried blood may cause the suture to stick slightly, but just pull gently and it should release. If it is harder to pull out than a pierced ear ring, consult a veterinarian.
