Peripheral Nerve Surgery

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is a network of 43 motor and sensory nerves that connects the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system) to the rest of the body. The brain and spinal cord are connected to the rest of the body by peripheral nerves. Peripheral nerve problems damage one or more nerves and can impair communication from the brain to the rest of the body. People with peripheral nerve problems, such as acute nerve injuries, entrapment neuropathies, and nerve sheath tumours, undergo peripheral nerve surgery to restore function and reduce pain and impairment. It entails rerouting healthy nerves to take over the function of nerves that have been damaged, diseased, or otherwise compromised by your injury, disease, or condition.43 pairs of peripheral nerves extend from the spinal cord, similar to electrical lines, and provide movement, motor coordination, and sensation throughout the body. Carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar nerve compression, peroneal nerve compression in the knee, meralgia parasthetica, and tarsal tunnel syndrome are the most common problems of this sort. Surgery works wonders for nerve entrapment. Recovery is swift, and patients can resume their normal routines.
