Peripheral Nerve Surgery
The peripheral nervous system consists of the motor and sensory nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nerves provide input to all the facial muscles, the muscles of the upper extremity as well as the lower extremity. It also provides sensory perception for the entire body. Many people experience pain or numbness due to sensory nerve injuries. Weakness or paralysis can be caused by motor nerve injuries. Patients who experience pain following other types of surgeries such as a hernia repair or a knee replacement, can often be helped by one of our surgeons.
