Blows to Arms
- Blow to dorsal surface of upper arm (the middle part between the biceps and triceps) may result in trauma to the ulnar and median nerves and blood vessels of the upper arm. This produces pain in the chest and neck and the loss of motor functions. Blow may fracture the humouous bone. The ulna, radial, and median nerves may be injured causing paralysis of the arm.
- Blow to lateral surface of the elbow may result in trauma to the ulnar nerve producing pain in the chest and neck also causing the loss of motor functions. Blow to elbow may tear the bursa (lubricating sac of joint) causing tremendous swelling and pain.
- Blow to arm may tear muscles or ligaments or pull them loose. Branchial artery may also be damaged.
- Blow to dorsal surface of the wrist (the space between the ends of the radius and ulna bones) may result in trauma to the median nerve and the loss of motor functions to the hand.
- Blow to inside wrist (area between brachioradilis and flexor muscles of the fingers) may result in trauma to the underlying nerve and artery, leading to pain that affects the chest and throat regions and causes the loss of motor functions and the loss of consciousness.
- Blow to back of the hand (especially the points between thumb and the index finger, also points between middle and ring finger) may result in loss of consciousness due to shock to the median nerve leading to pain in the chest and throat regions that will produce the loss of motor function. A similar result may occur from striking any one of the bones on the back of the hand.
