An EMG can be useful in determining if there is an injury to the axillary nerve. The largest numbers of axillary nerve palsies arise due to stretch injuries which are caused by blunt trauma or iatrogenesis. Axillary nerve palsy is characterized by the lack of shoulder abduction greater than 30 degrees with or without the loss of sense in the ...
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.

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 ...
The axillary nerve is injured in 37% making it the most commonly injured structure with this type of injury. [14] Other common, associated, nerve injuries include injury to the suprascapular nerve (29%) and the radial nerve (22%). [14] Axillary nerve damage results in a weakened or paralyzed deltoid muscle and as the deltoid
Erb's palsy is a paralysis of the arm caused by injury to the upper group of the arm's main nerves, specifically the severing of the upper trunk C5–C6 nerves. These form part of the brachial plexus, comprising the ventral rami of spinal nerves C5–C8 and thoracic nerve T1.
Visualization, real-time feedback (like looking at yourself in the mirror during reps), and mental rehearsal can enhance the mind-muscle connection, says Rachelle A. Reed, PhD, MS, ACSM-EP, an ...
Allow your body time to recover between workouts, ensuring quality sleep and incorporating rest days into your routine. This balanced approach prevents burnout and promotes a sustainable approach ...
Repeated nerve trauma can cause recurring stingers, chronic pain, and muscle weakness, while recovery can take weeks to months in severe cases. [6] Since stingers are a nerve injury, a stinger can fall into two different categories of peripheral nerve injury with physiological differences.
