  2. Nerve compression syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_compression_syndrome

    Nerve compression syndrome, or compression neuropathy, or nerve entrapment syndrome, is a medical condition caused by chronic, direct pressure on a peripheral nerve. [1] It is known colloquially as a trapped nerve, though this may also refer to nerve root compression (by a herniated disc, for example).

  3. Posterior ischemic optic neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_ischemic_optic...

    Ischemic injury to the optic nerve causes inflammation and swelling. Because the posterior optic nerve passes through the optic canal, a bony tunnel leading to the brain, swelling in this rigid space causes compression of the optic nerve. This compression worsens ischemia and perpetuates the cycle of injury, and swelling, and compression. [1]

  4. Complex regional pain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_regional_pain_syndrome

    Complex regional pain syndrome is uncommon, and its cause is not clearly understood. CRPS typically develops after an injury, surgery, heart attack, or stroke. [8] [12] Investigators estimate that 2–5% of those with peripheral nerve injury, [13] and 13–70% of those with hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body) [14] will develop

  5. Thoracic outlet syndrome - Wikipedia

    Kreider dealt with multiple symptoms prior to the diagnosis, such as shortness of breath on the ice, swelling/numbness in his right arm, coughing up blood and a blood clot in his right arm. Kreider underwent successful surgery to resect a rib in January 2018 (the same surgery as TOS) and has performed well since returning to the Rangers. [38]

  6. Nerve decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_decompression

    The symptoms of nerve injury in the early 1900s were called nerve palsy (today neuropathy or neuritis are more common terms). [50] The concept of injuries causing nerve palsy was understood at that time. [49] For example, wrist fractures were known to be a cause of nerve palsy through compression, and this could be treated by liberating the nerve.

  7. Peripheral neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_neuropathy

    Peripheral neuropathy, often shortened to neuropathy, refers to damage or disease affecting the nerves. [1] Damage to nerves may impair sensation, movement, gland function, and/or organ function depending on which nerve fibers are affected. Neuropathies affecting motor, sensory, or autonomic nerve fibers result in different symptoms. More than ...

  8. Facial nerve decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_nerve_decompression

    Tumour of facial nerve like schwannomas and perineuromas. Other tumours that can compress facial nerve along its course like congenital cholesteatomas, hemangiomas, acoustic neuromas, parotid gland neoplasms, or metastases of other tumors. Other causes like viral, bacterial or fungal infections like chicken pox, streptococcal infection or ...

  9. Trigeminal neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_neuralgia

    Less than 1% of varicella zoster infections involve the facial nerve and result in this occurring. [17] Trigeminal deafferentation pain (TDP), also termed anesthesia dolorosa, or colloquially as phantom face pain, is from unintentional damage to a trigeminal nerve following attempts to fix a nerve problem surgically. This pain is usually ...
