Alaska (IPA: [ÉËlÃ¦skÉ]) is a state of the United States of America, located in the extreme northwest portion of North America. It is by far the largest U.S. state in area, and is also one of the wealthiest and most racially diverse states. The area that became Alaska was purchased from Russian claims on October 18, 1867; Alaska became the 49th state of the United States on January 3, 1959.
The usual causes of femoral nerve dysfunction: 1  Direct injury (trauma) 2  Prolonged pressure on the nerve. 3  Compression or entrapment of the nerve by nearby parts of the body or disease-related structures (such as a tumor)
The decreased blood flow can result in tissue damage. If your nerve damage is the result of an injury, it may be possible that your femoral vein or artery is also damaged. This could cause dangerous internal bleeding. The femoral artery is a very large artery that lies close to the femoral nerve.
