Pain can also be in the side of the neck, the pectoral area below the clavicle, the armpit/axillary area, and the upper back (i.e., the trapezius and rhomboid area). Discoloration of the hands, one hand colder than the other hand, weakness of the hand and arm muscles, and tingling are commonly present. [citation needed]
They are known as the "5 Ps": pain, pallor, decreased pulse, paresthesia, and paralysis. [6] Pain and paresthesia are the early symptoms of compartment syndrome. [19] [6] Common symptoms are: Pain: A person may feel pain greater than the exam findings. [6] This pain may not be relieved by strong painkillers, including opioids like morphine. [20]
The largest leaves are at the base of the plant and are 4–15 cm (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 –6 in) long, about 5 cm (2 in) wide and have a petiole. These leaves have up to 15 teeth, or lobes or both on the edges. The leaves decrease in size up the stem, the upper leaves up to 7.5 cm (3 in) long, lack a petiole and are deeply toothed. [2] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Injuries to the arm, forearm or wrist area can lead to various nerve disorders. One such disorder is median nerve palsy. The median nerve controls the majority of the muscles in the forearm. It controls abduction of the thumb, flexion of hand at wrist, flexion of digital phalanx of the fingers, is the sensory nerve for the first three fingers, etc.
Paresthesias of the hands, feet, legs, and arms are common transient symptoms. The briefest electric shock type of paresthesia can be caused by tweaking the ulnar nerve near the elbow; this phenomenon is colloquially known as bumping one's "funny bone". Similar brief shocks can be experienced when any other nerve is tweaked (e.g. a pinched neck ...
Radial nerve dysfunction is a problem associated with the radial nerve resulting from injury consisting of acute trauma to the radial nerve.The damage has sensory consequences, as it interferes with the radial nerve's innervation of the skin of the posterior forearm, lateral three digits, and the dorsal surface of the lateral side of the palm.
The forearm is the region of the upper limb between the elbow and the wrist. [1] The term forearm is used in anatomy to distinguish it from the arm, a word which is used to describe the entire appendage of the upper limb, but which in anatomy, technically, means only the region of the upper arm, whereas the lower "arm" is called the forearm.
The leaves are on a short stalk 11 mm (0.43 in) long, arranged alternately, may be either sparse or crowded and end in a sharp point. The leaves are narrowly oval to oblong about 15–125 mm (0.59–4.9 in) long and 3–20 mm (0.12–0.79 in) wide with small, coarse, irregular teeth or slightly lobed serrations along the margin.
