Arm Nerve Injuries

Peripheral nerve injuries to the arm and shoulder can occur due to trauma, compression, or medical conditions affecting the nerves. These injuries may impair sensory and motor functions, depending on which nerve is affected, resulting in pain, altered feeling and/or reduced movement. The major peripheral nerves in the shoulder and arm include the accessory nerve, long thoracic nerve, suprascapular nerve, axillary nerve, musculocutaneous nerve, median nerve, ulnar nerve, and radial nerve. The Nerve Injury Clinic treats all upper limb nerve injuries and conditions at all stages of recovery, from the very early phases to many years after onset. We can always help in some way- either with rehabilitation, pain management, posture or orthotics.
