A member asked:

Help plz! can severed nerves be reattached with electronics?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Generic response: Am not clear as to the extent of "severed nerves" here, and your question is too general to be precise. However, if nerves are completely severed, surgical repair may be possible if done in timely fashion, and prosthetic devices may help. Don't think we are at the stage of electronic or computerized repairs yet.
