  2. Superior cluneal nerves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_cluneal_nerves

    Dysfunction of the superior cluneal nerves is often due to entrapment as the nerves cross the iliac crest – this can result in numbness, tingling or pain in the low back and upper buttocks region. Superior cluneal nerve dysfunction is a clinical diagnosis that can be supported by diagnostic nerve blocks. [1]

  3. 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).

  4. Nerve decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_decompression

    A nerve decompression is a neurosurgical procedure to relieve chronic, direct pressure on a nerve to treat nerve entrapment, a pain syndrome characterized by severe chronic pain and muscle weakness. In this way a nerve decompression targets the underlying pathophysiology of the syndrome and is considered a first-line surgical treatment option ...

  5. Pathophysiology of nerve entrapment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathophysiology_of_nerve...

    Extensive scar tissue formation is a major cause of nerve entrapment, and for deep gluteal syndrome (entrapment of the sciatic nerve in the deep gluteal space), it's the most common cause. [11] While the concept of scar tissue causing traction injuries is widely accepted, [ 2 ] its role is more complex than strictly causing stretching injuries.

  6. Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulnar_neuropathy_at_the_elbow

    Ulnar neuropathy at the cubital tunnel is diagnosed based on characteristic symptoms and signs. Intermittent or static numbness in the small finger and ulnar half of the ring finger, weakness or atrophy of the first dorsal interosseous, positive Tinel sign over the ulnar nerve proximal to the cubital tunnel, and positive elbow flexion test (elicitation of paresthesia in the small and ring ...

  7. Neurectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurectomy

    No treatment modality prior to neurectomy (e.g. systemic medications, cryoablation, therapeutic nerve blocks, and radioablation) has given effective pain relief and none have been curative. [ 19 ] The success outcome is typically measured as a 50% or more decrease in visual analog scale (VAS) scores, which are numerical pain scores from 0 - 10 ...

  8. Elbow pain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbow_Pain

    Elbow pain is a relatively vague symptom that could be the result of any number of possible pathologies. On a cellular level the pain, aka nociception , is conveyed through nerves in the elbow. Theses nerve cells, aka neurons , are activated and or compressed due to local tissue damage and swelling, which ultimately leads to pain and possibly ...

  9. Ulnar neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulnar_neuropathy

    In cases where surgery is needed, cubital tunnel release, where the ligament of the cubital tunnel is cut, thereby alleviating pressure on nerve can be performed. [9] [13] [14] Treatment for the common occurrence of ulnar neuropathy resulting from overuse, with no fractures or structural abnormalities, is treatment massage, ice, and anti ...
