  6. Sensory neuronopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_neuronopathy

    Sensory neuronopathy differs from the more common length dependent axonal polyneuropathies (such as diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy) in that the symptoms do not progress in a distal to proximal pattern (starting in the feet and progressing to the legs and hands), rather symptoms develop in a multifocal, asymmetric, and non-length dependent ...

  7. Nerve compression syndrome - Wikipedia

[1] It is known colloquially as a trapped nerve, though this may also refer to nerve root compression (by a herniated disc, for example).
