Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Introduction to Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Peripheral nerve injury is a general term used to describe damage of the nerves outside the brain or spinal cord. Peripheral nerve injuries are often caused by trauma.

Common symptoms of a peripheral nerve injury are weakness, altered sensation, pain and loss of function below the level of the injury.

Surgical repair of the damaged nerve is sometimes required. Whether surgery is required or not, physiotherapy has a very important role in your rehabilitation enabling you to reach your maximum possible recovery.

The physiotherapists at Manchester Neuro Physio understand the impact that a peripheral nerve injury can have on your everyday life. We provide home and clinic based appointments.
