A member asked:
Is neuroregeneration is possible after an traumatic injury in leg.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: There are different types of nerve injury regeneration depends upon an intact nerve sheath as well as the extent of crush injury to a nerve but it is possible for there to be degenerative nerve growth . It's important to receive physical therapy during the period of time we are waiting for recovery.
