Ulnar Neuropathy
Ulnar neuropathy refers to an injury of the ulnar nerve.
The ulnar nerve is the nerve that passes through the
forearm and into the hand, and provides sensation to
the fourth and fifth digits of the hand, the palm, and
the back side of the forearm. Ulnar neuropathy most frequently
occurs at the point where the ulnar nerve passes through
the elbow. |
