  2. Diabetic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetic_neuropathy

    Enhanced glucose control prevents the development of clinical neuropathy and reduces nerve abnormalities in type 1 diabetes, and delays the onset of neuropathy in both types of diabetes. However, such methods may increase the likelihood of experiencing a hypoglycemic event, and many of these more aggressive methods require more frequent insulin ...

  3. Axillary nerve palsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_nerve_palsy

    An injury to the axillary nerve normally occurs from a direct impact of some sort to the outer arm, though it can result from injuring a shoulder via dislocation or compression of the nerve. The axillary nerve comes from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus at the coracoid process and provides the motor function to the deltoid and teres ...

  4. Peripheral neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_neuropathy

    Peripheral neuropathy may be classified according to the number and distribution of nerves affected (mononeuropathy, mononeuritis multiplex, or polyneuropathy), the type of nerve fiber predominantly affected (motor, sensory, autonomic), or the process affecting the nerves; e.g., inflammation (), compression (compression neuropathy), chemotherapy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy).

  5. Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_injury_related_to...

    SIRVA is caused by improper insertion of the needle used in injections. It is "a preventable occurrence caused by the injection of a vaccine into the shoulder capsule rather than the deltoid muscle. As a result, inflammation of the shoulder structures causes patients to experience pain, a decreased range of motion, and a decreased quality of life."

  6. Axillary nerve dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_nerve_dysfunction

    Axillary nerve dysfunction is any disorder caused by damage to the axillary nerve. [1] The axillary nerve is a branch of the brachial plexus that innervates the deltoid and teres minor muscles. This nerve can be injured or damaged in a variety of ways - penetrating injury such as knife or gunshot wounds, surgical trauma, stretch injury (common ...

  7. Injection site reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injection_site_reaction

    Injection site reactions (ISRs) are reactions that occur at the site of injection of a drug. They may be mild or severe and may or may not require medical intervention. Some reactions may appear immediately after injection, and some may be delayed. [1] Such reactions can occur with subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous administration.

  8. Injury of axillary nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injury_of_axillary_nerve

    Injury of axillary nerve (axillary neuropathy) is a condition that can be associated with a surgical neck of the humerus fracture. It can also be associated with a dislocated shoulder [ 1 ] or with traction injury to the nerve, which may be caused by over-aggressive stretching or blunt trauma that does not result in fracture or dislocation. [ 2 ]

  9. Neurolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurolysis

    Neurolysis mediates the effects of alcohol and phenol injections but does not mediate the effects of BoNT injections. Phenol and alcohol are less expensive, faster acting, can treat larger areas, and can be re-administered or boosted in less than three months, however, those injections also require the patient to be sedated, cause muscle ...
