Therefore, we propose multi-electrodes ankle nerve bundle electrical stimulation method, which can generate the distribution of tactile sensations on the plantar and dorsal surfaces of the foot by ...

While muscle stiffness affects ankle flexibility in young people, in older adults nerve stiffness appears to be the culprit instead, according to a new study. In a study published in the October 2020 ...

The peroneal nerve, responsible for foot and ankle movement, can become weak due to injury or a sedentary lifestyle. Strengthening this nerve is crucial for improving mobility and preventing ...

The sciatic nerve is stimulated at the ankle (upper trace) and at the knee (lower trace). Compound muscle action potentials are recorded from plantar muscle. Typical nerve conduction abnormalities ...

The most accessible sensory nerve for biopsy is the sural nerve located behind the ankle. The procedure involves injection of a local anesthetic in the area to be biopsied. An incision about two ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relation between response to common peroneal nerve stimulation, timed to the swing phase of walking, and abnormal ankle movement and muscle activation patterns. METHOD ...

The ankle was non-irritable, alignment was normal and there were no gross varicose veins ... Intraoperatively, no obvious ganglion was identified near the tibial nerve. Varicosity of the posterior ...
