unopposed action

limbs will bend toward muscle with most tone, think WEAK muscles


ex: weak tricep will cause unopposed bicep flexion

backpackers palsy

damage to superior trunk, similiar to herb's palsy

sometimes correlated with Brachial Plexus Lesions, some sympathetic nerves from spinal nerves travel to neck and can simultaneously be impinged, ptosis (droopy eye), miosis (tiny pupil), usually unilateral, anhydrosis (one side will not sweat)

Brachial Artery

splits into radial and ulnar arteries, profunda brachii: goes round back of humerus and splits into ulnar and radial collateral arteries

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

compression of neurovascular bundle in axilla, typically ulnar nerve, can be caused by working overhead


Causes:


- Scalene 1st rib syndrome


- Costocalvicular Syndrome
- Pec Minor Syndrome (head forward posture, pec minor shortens, scapular protracted)
