The phrase
"radial nerve" refers to a major nerve in our body that runs from our upper arm down to our hand. It controls and provides sensation to muscles in the forearm and hand, allowing us to move and feel things with our fingers.
Full definition
Now an improved «nerve cuff» allows for the sensation of tactile pressure to be communicated directly to the median, ulnar and
radial nerves in the arm at the site of amputation.
His injuries included a serious brain trauma, a punctured lung, complex open elbow fracture,
radial nerve palsy in the left arm and fractured pelvis, tibia and femur.
Radial nerve paralysis is the most common nerve injury in dogs: it can be easily damaged by trauma as it passes laterally along the humerus.
In contrast to cubital tunnel syndrome and carpal tunnel syndrome, radial tunnel syndrome rarely causes numbness or tingling, because
the radial nerve principally affects the muscles.
Radial tunnel syndrome is caused by increased pressure on
the radial nerve, which runs by the bones and muscles of the forearm and elbow.
Neurological disorders — Seizure, weakness from chronic disc disease,
