Axillary Nerve ULNT

[emad]

Hi all ;

Daniel gave life to how to test tension or sensitivity to the suprascuplar nerve , so that i set this thread how could we test the Axillary nerve ?

Of course we need the long thoracic nerve too in another thread and those short nerves before the brachial plexus goes out .

Cheers

Hi emad,

it is me again...

Nervus axillaris:
1) gleno-humeral internal (= medial) rotation
2) scapula depression
3) cervical lateral flexion

That is what I know. In the following article the authors describe different movements.
