Brachial Plexus Injury | Dr Leena Jain Plastic Surgeon

A brachial plexus injury occurs when the group of nerves that control movement and feeling in the shoulder, arm, and hand gets damaged. This can happen due to accidents, trauma, or excessive stretching, often seen during childbirth or sports injuries. The severity of the injury can vary widely from mild nerve stretching that heals over time to severe cases where the nerves are torn or detached from the spinal cord, leading to weakness or even paralysis in the affected upper limb
