This real-world incident highlights how outdated tools and improvised techniques endanger patients — and why modernization is ...

Insofar as the thumb is concerned, numbness may be due to the disruption of the median nerve which services the palm and pad of the thumb, and the radial nerve which services the back of the thumb.

The median nerve isn’t the only nerve that helps move your hand, though. Its partners, the ulnar nerve and radial nerve, also direct hand and wrist movement and transmit sensation.

Radial nerve. Controls muscles in the forearm, upper arm, elbow, and back of hand. The nerve root is in areas C5 to T1. Median nerve. Mostly controls the forearms and some parts of the hand.

Similar to CuTS, there is a general lack of controlled studies comparing steroid use versus surgery for treatment of radial nerve compression syndromes. The radial nerve may become compressed between ...

ABSTRACT: Radial nerve injuries in displaced extension-type supracondylar humeral fractures in children are well known. Entrapment in fracture of radial nerve is uncommon and rarely evocated in ...

The radial nerve runs down the arm and to the fingertips. If it’s injured, radial nerve pain usually occurs when your palm is pressed against something and your wrist is bent back. It’s typically a ...

Because most radial nerves have signs of sensory or motor recovery within 2 to 3 months and nerve grafts work just as well after this amount of delay, there is no harm in initial observation.

Compression or ‘pinching’ of one of the main arm nerves can cause tingling, numbness, and nerve pain in the arm. Physical therapy, medications, and surgery can treat pinched nerves. A pinched ...
