The 12 cranial nerves, labeled with Roman numerals (I-XII), each serve specific functions such as controlling eye movements, facial expressions, hearing, and swallowing.

The emergence of the skull is represented for each nerve.

Understanding these nerves is crucial in medical fields like neurology, neurosurgery and neurointensivism, helping professionals diagnose and treat disorders related to nerve damage or dysfunction.

Both Carpal Tunnel and Cubital Tunnel involve the compression of a nerve through a narrow passageway, and both can cause pain, tingling, numbness and weakness in the hand. Both conditions can also weaken the hand and make everyday tasks more difficult or even dangerous.

It is quite common for patients to have both cubital and carpal tunnel at the same time. It is also common for the conditions to be present in both arms at the same time. When patients have numbness in all the fingers of the hand we need to examine and test for both cubital and carpal tunnel syndromes

(Carpal tunnel syndrome) involves pinching of the nerve at the level of the wrist, whereas (cubital tunnel syndrome) is pinching of the nerve at the level of the elbow.

Spinal stenosis refers to the narrowing of the spinal canal, which houses the spinal cord and nerves. This narrowing can compress the spinal cord or nerve roots, leading to a range of symptoms.

Tarlov cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form on the nerve roots of the spine, particularly in the lower back (sacral area). People can have multiple cysts of different sizes, which may cause symptoms depending on their location and size. Larger cysts are more likely to trigger symptoms, including nerve pain, numbness, loss of bladder and bowel control, impotence, and rare leg weakness. Even small, symptomless cysts can grow over time and eventually cause issues. The exact reason for Tarlov cysts is unknown, but they might result from abnormal nerve sheath development.

clinical tip
Relation between tight of illopsoas and back pain
Line of force of muscle is divided into two parts
compression and leaning forward
This varies depending on position of pelvic
In neutral there is no tight
In case of lumber lordosis anterior pelvic tilt The direction of the force is greater toward leaning forward more than compression
In case of flat back posterior pelvic tilt The direction of the force is greater toward compression more than leaning forward

_The Power of Tilting Tables in Rehabilitation_

As a physical therapists ,weโ€™re constantly seeking innovative ways to improve patient outcomes. One often overlooked tool is the tilting table!

Tilting tables offer numerous benefits for patients with spinal cord injuries, stroke, and other conditions, including:

- Improved circulation and reduced pressure sores
- Enhanced respiratory function and increased lung capacity
- Increased mobility and range of motion
- Strengthening of muscles and bones
- Boosted confidence and independence

By incorporating tilting tables into rehabilitation programs, we can:

- Enhance patient recovery and outcomes
- Reduce healthcare costs and complications
- Improve overall quality of life

Letโ€™s harness the potential of tilting tables to transform patient care!

When a person with muscle weakness attempts to stand up from a sitting or lying position, they may use their hands and arms to โ€œwalkโ€ up their own body. This movement compensates for the lack of strength in the hips and thigh muscles. The person may start by pushing on their thighs, then using their hands on their knees, and eventually standing up, indicating weakness in the proximal muscles.

Genu Rcurvatum that caused by flaccid muscle paralysis form Polio.
๐Ÿ’กLook How can only one tool change biomechanics of Joint , Just Try to give your patient the proper advice :
๐Ÿ’กA: When the subject stand barefoot the body act with an abnormally large EMA (external momnet arm )at knee so as a result:large extensor torque amplifies the magnitude of hyperextension knee deformity .
๐Ÿ’กB: Reduce severity of Hyperextension By wearing shoes with a built-up heel because the shoe tilt the tibia and knee forward and that reducing EMA at knee.
๐Ÿ’ฅN.B : Because of complete paralyzed of ankle : surgical fused about 25 degrees of planter flexsion.
