A member asked:
I was ordered an emg of adductors by ortho. then neurologist said that cannot stimulate obturator too deep in pelvis? who's correct here?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neurologist right : I've never tried to stimulate the obturaror nerve. I think it'd be quite uncomfortable. The needle EMG would potentially be helpful.
