Yu dɔn ɛva fil wan strenj tin lɛk jolt we de rɔn dɔŋ yu an we yu bamp yu ɛlb? Wi ɔl de jok fɔ kɔl am di "funny bone." Bɔt i nɔ rili bi bon. Na filin we de kכmכt frכm wan rili imכtant nεv we de rכn along di insay pat pan yu εlbo. Sɔntɛnde dis nɛv kin jɔs pinch.

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, wetin na Cubital Tunnel Syndrome?

Cubital tunnel syndrome na wan kכndyushכn we di ulnar nεv we de insay wi εlbo de kכmprεs כ kכmprεs. Dɛn kin kɔl dis bak ulnar nerve entrapment.

Naw yu kin de wɔnda wetin na di Ulnar nerve. Wi bɔdi in bren kin kɛr mɛsej dɛn ɔlsay na di bɔdi tru di nerv dɛn. Lɛk ilɛktrik waya dɛn. Wi gɛt tri men nerv dɛn na wi an. Wan pan dɛn na di Ulnar nerve. I kin bigin na wi nɛk, go dɔŋ wi an, ɛn dɔn na wi an.

As dis nεv de pas tru di εlbo, i de go tru wan sכmכl tכnel we dεn mek wit bon εn כda tisu. Dis na wetin wi kɔl di kubital tanɛl . Dis tanɛl de ɔnda wan smɔl bon bɔmp we de insay di ɛlb. insay mεdikal tεm dεm, wi kin kכl dis bכmp di mεdial εpikondyul . Yu kin fil am wit yu an, da pɔynt bon we de insay di ɛlb. Na so i kin fil we yu hit da "funny bon."

Dis tanɛl rili smɔl. Ɛn na smɔl tisu nɔmɔ de fɔ protɛkt dis nɛv. So di pɔsibiliti fɔ mek dis nerve pwɛl pasmak. if fכ sכm rizin di nεv kכmprεs כ trכp insay dis tכnel, na da tεm de di simptom dεm fכ di kubital tכnel sεndrכm de sho.

Wetin kin apin to wi an wit dis ulnar nerve?

Dis nerve rili impɔtant fɔ di wok we wi an de du.

• Grip: Dis nɛv de kɔntrol sɔm pan di big big mɔsul dɛn na wi an, so i de ɛp wi fɔ ol tin dɛn tayt.
• Fכ fil na di finga dεm: Dis nεv de mek yu sכm finga εn di layt sayd na yu ring finga fil.
• Fayn muvmεnt dεm: Dis nεv de kכntro bכku pan di sכm sכm mכsul dεm na di an. Dis nerve impɔtant fɔ mek yu ebul fɔ muv fayn fayn wan, lɛk fɔ tayp na kɔmpyuta ɔ fɔ ple myuzik inschrumɛnt.

So naw yu ɔndastand us kayn prɔblɛm kin apin if dis nerve kin pinch.
