Nerve disorders are most frequent in the upper (hand and arm) and lower (leg) extremities. It can be induced either by blunt trauma, such as a fall or a traction injury caused by a motor vehicle accident, or by a sharp trauma, such as a direct knife wound. In any case, major nerve injuries need specialist assessment and care. For certain cases where the nerve remains partially intact, close monitoring and time can be all that is needed to recover. For certain cases, though, these injuries may require surgical reconstruction. There are over 100 various forms of nerve trauma. The multiple types may have different patterns and may need various methods of treatment.
You will not need surgery if your nerve is recovering well. You can have to rest the infected area before it is healed. Slow recovery of the nerves and full recovery can take several months or several years. You ‘re going to need daily tests to make sure your healing stays on track. When the injury is due to a medical condition, the underlying illness should be treated by the doctor. Based on the scope and severity of your nerve damage, you may need medicine to alleviate the pain. Medications used to treat depression, epilepsy or insomnia can be used to alleviate pain in the nerves. For certain cases, you might need injections of corticosteroids to relieve pain.
Nerve grafting from the lower leg Peripheral nerve graft Open the Nerve Transfer dialog box Nerve Transfer Open pop-up dialog If your injury does not appear to be able to heal properly, an EMG test may be used by your surgeon in the operating room to assess whether the scarred nerves are starting to recover. Doing an EMG test directly on the nerve is more accurate and consistent than doing a skin test. Often a nerve sits in a tight space or is scarred. In these cases, your surgeon may enlarge the space or release the nerve from the scar.
Often the nerve segment is completely cut or irreparably damaged. Your surgeon can remove the damaged part and reconstruct healthy nerve ends or implant a piece of nerve from some other part of your body (nerve graft). Such procedures will help your nerves grow. If you have an extremely severe nerve injury, your doctor can recommend surgery to restore essential muscle function by moving tendons from one muscle to the next.
