Modern texts are in agreement about which areas of the skin are served by which nerves , but there are minor variations in some of the details.
The sural communicating nerve (SCN) (peroneal communicating branch of the common fibular nerve) is a separate and independent nerve from both the medial and lateral sural cutaneous nerves, often arising from a common trunk of the common fibular nerve [1] [2] The primary purpose of the sural communicating branch is to provide the structural path for transferring tibial nerve fascicular ...

The sciatic nerve, also called the ischiadic nerve, is a large nerve in humans and other vertebrate animals.

Compression of the median nerve in the region of the elbow or proximal part of the forearm can cause pain and/or numbness in the distribution of the distal median nerve, and weakness of the muscles innervated by the anterior interosseous nerve: the flexor pollicis longus ("FPL"), the flexor digitorum profundus of the index finger ("FDP IF"), and the pronator quadratus ("PQ").
