  1. cervical nerve

    A spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body. In the human body there are 31 pairs of spinal nerves, one on each side of the vertebral column. These are grouped into the corresponding cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions of the spine. There are eight pairs of cervical nerves, twelve pairs of thoracic nerves, five pairs of lumbar nerves, five pairs of sacral nerves, and one pair of coccygeal nerves. The spinal nerves are part of the peripheral nervous system.

  1. cervical nerve

    A cervical nerve refers to any of the eight paired nerves that are located in the cervical region of the spinal cord. These nerves emerge from the spinal cord through the seven cervical vertebrae in the neck. They control various bodily functions and movements, primarily in the neck, shoulders, arms, and hands. Each of these nerves has both sensory and motor components, which means they are responsible for transmitting both sensory information from the body to the brain and motor commands from the brain to our muscles. Pathologies or injuries affecting these nerves can lead to neurological disorders or pain syndromes.
