Nerve damage

Nerve damage occurs when nerves, which act like communication cables transmitting signals between the brain, spinal cord, and the body, become injured or compromised. This can result from injuries, infections, diabetes, or other conditions, leading to symptoms like numbness, tingling, weakness, pain, or loss of function in affected areas. Damage may disrupt the nerve's ability to send and receive signals properly, affecting sensation and movement. The severity varies, with some nerve injuries healing over time, while others may cause lasting issues. Proper diagnosis and treatment are essential to manage symptoms and promote recovery.
