  2. Nerve injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_injury

    This type of nerve damage may cause paralysis of the motor, sensory, and autonomic functions, and is mainly seen in crush injury. [2] If the force creating the nerve damage is removed in a timely fashion, the axon may regenerate, leading to recovery. Electrically, the nerve shows rapid and complete degeneration, with loss of voluntary motor units.

  3. Pain in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain_in_fish

    Fish fulfill several criteria proposed as indicating that non-human animals experience pain. These fulfilled criteria include a suitable nervous system and sensory receptors, opioid receptors and reduced responses to noxious stimuli when given analgesics and local anaesthetics, physiological changes to noxious stimuli, displaying protective motor reactions, exhibiting avoidance learning and ...

  4. Hunan hand syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunan_hand_syndrome

    Hunan hand syndrome (also known as "chili burn" [1]) is a temporary, but very painful, cutaneous condition that commonly afflicts those who handle, prepare, or cook with fresh or roasted chili peppers. [1] It was first described in an eponymous case report in The New England Journal of Medicine in 1981. [2]

  5. Hand injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_injury

    Any nerve injury of the hand can be disabling and results in loss of hand function. Thus it is vital to seek medical help as soon as possible after any hand injury. [4] Sprains result from forcing a joint to perform against its normal range of motion. Finger sprains occur when the ligaments which are attached to the bone are overstretched and ...

  6. Aquarium granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_granuloma

    Avoid fresh or saltwater activities if there are open cuts, scrapes, or sores on the skin, especially in water where this bacterium is known to exist. [3] Wear heavy gloves (leather or heavy cotton) while cleaning or processing fish, especially fish with sharp spines that may cause cuts to the hands and skin.

  7. Wartenberg's sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wartenberg's_sign

    The latter involves compression at the wrist of the superficial sensory branch of the radial nerve which does not innervate hand muscles. [citation needed] Robert Wartenberg (1887-1956) was a neurologist born in Belarus who worked in Germany until 1935 when he emigrated to the United States. He was widely published and described a number of ...

  8. Neurotmesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotmesis

    Neurotmesis (in Greek tmesis signifies "to cut") is part of Seddon's classification scheme used to classify nerve damage. It is the most serious nerve injury in the scheme. In this type of injury, both the nerve and the nerve sheath are disrupted. While partial recovery may occur, complete recovery is impossible.

  9. Paralysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paralysis

    A well-known example of a vertebrate-produced paralyzing toxin is the tetrodotoxin of fish species such as Takifugu rubripes, the famously lethal pufferfish of Japanese fugu. This toxin works by binding to sodium channels in nerve cells, inhibiting the cells' proper function. A non-lethal dose of this toxin results in temporary paralysis.
