Radial nerve arm, and later in the anterior compartment of the arm, and continues in the posterior compartment of the forearm. The radial nerve originates from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus with root values of C5 to C8 and T1. From the brachial plexus, it travels behind the third part of the axillary artery (part of the axillary artery distal to the pectoralis minor). In the arm, it runs behind the brachial artery and then enters the lower triangular space to reach the radial sulcus of back of the humerus. It travel downwards together with profunda brachii atery, between the
Brachial plexus injury be divided into three types: Backpack palsy is caused by much use of a heavy backpack whose pack-straps chronically press on the brachial plexus. Injury to the brachial plexus can happen in numerous environments. These may include contact sports, motor vehicle accidents, and birth. Although these are but a common few events, there is one of two mechanisms of injury that remain constant during the point of injury. The two mechanisms that can occur are traction and heavy impact. The brachial plexus is made up of spinal nerves that are part of the peripheral nervous system. It includes sensory and
