A member asked:
Is there any way to know which nerves have been damaged since he lost his hearing, smell and particle motor skill, suffering a 40ft drop on his head ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A summary.: For hearing it sould be the auditory nerve, smell would be the olfactory nerve. For the motor you need to know what is the specific motor deficit.
