Nerve injuries :
Nerve injuries are caused due to nerve damage by trauma, compression or diseases. Nerves carry the signal between your brain, spinal cord and all other important parts of your body. These signals are interrupted when the neurons become injured, then movement, sensation or organ function is affected. Major causes which lead to this are usually knife cuts, bone breaking, trauma or pressure on a nerve for long duration. Nerve problems are also caused by other conditions such as diabetes, infection or autoimmune diseases. The symptoms vary, depending on the nature and location of the injury and can include numbness, tingling, weakness, severe pain or altered movement in the affected area. Major nerve injuries will generally cause lifelong loss if not treated. Treatment depends on the type and depth of the wound. Most minor injuries will resolve on their self with rest and physical therapy Severe cases may need pharmacologic therapy, nerve repair surgery or graft. Preventing complications and restoring normal function can be achieved by early diagnosis after consultations from neurologist
