Kreider dealt with multiple symptoms prior to the diagnosis, such as shortness of breath on the ice, swelling/numbness in his right arm, coughing up blood and a blood clot in his right arm. Kreider underwent successful surgery to resect a rib in January 2018 (the same surgery as TOS) and has performed well since returning to the Rangers. [38]
Monoplegia is paralysis of a single limb, usually an arm. Common symptoms associated with monoplegic patients are weakness, numbness, and pain in the affected limb. Monoplegia is a type of paralysis that falls under hemiplegia. While hemiplegia is paralysis of half of the body, monoplegia is localized to a single limb or to a specific region of ...
[10] The cardinal signs of brachial plexus injury then, are weakness in the arm, diminished reflexes, and corresponding sensory deficits. [11] [citation needed] Erb's palsy. "The position of the limb, under such conditions, is characteristic: the arm hangs by the side and is rotated medially; the forearm is extended and pronated.
Brachial amyotrophic diplegia, also called Vulpian-Bernhardt Syndrome (VBS), flail arm syndrome, or man-in-barrel syndrome, is a rare motor neuron disease, often considered to be a phenotype or regional variant of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [1] In the first twelve to eighteen months, only a progressive weakness of one or both arms is ...
Symptoms can range from minor to severe and can be obvious or subtle. The right arm and hand are more likely to be affected than the left. Symptoms include atrophy of the arm or hand, claw hand, constant crying (due to pain), [10] intrinsic minus hand deformity, [11] paralysis of intrinsic hand muscles, and C8/T1 Dermatome distribution numbness.
The theory is that the radial nerve becomes irritated and/or inflamed from friction caused by compression by muscles in the forearm. [1]Some speculate that radial tunnel syndrome is a type of repetitive strain injury (RSI), but there is no detectable pathophysiology and even the existence of this disorder is questioned.
Radial neuropathy is a type of mononeuropathy which results from acute trauma to the radial nerve that extends the length of the arm. [3] It is known as transient paresthesia when sensation is temporarily abnormal.
Hemiparesis, also called unilateral paresis, is the weakness of one entire side of the body (hemi-means "half"). Hemiplegia, in its most severe form, is the complete paralysis of one entire side of the body.
