Nerve Regeneration | Spinal Cord vs Peripheral Nerves

In this video, Dr Matt explains why spinal cord injuries generally dont regenerate as efficiently as peripheral nerves.

[@kjr8660]

Thank you for what you're doing on here and in the lab!

[@golsen2106]

This is one of the best videos I have ever seen on nerve regeneration! Thank you.

[@norafox4789]

I am learning so much, PLEASE more....

[@MugEdge8]

after my first week reading about nerve damage... I theorised your idea of creating a womb-like space full of stem cells and other ingredients necessary for the nerves to regenerate. It would be interesting to see a follow up on your research.

[@vocalphilia-li5qz]

You're heros thank you so much for your hard work. I wish all the best for your research.

great explanation. i have seen similar trials in the past but no follow up. one was to use nasal stem cells to form a tube through which the nerve could grow. curious to know if the study would look at pns severed from the spine such as a brachial plexus injury.

I've been using lion's mane mushrooms in a 7 mushroom blend. I was told I lost a 1/4" of the meylin sheath from having GBS twice in 88 from my only flu shot.

Thank you so much for this explanation. A few weeks ago i had a deep cut through my left forearm. The median nerver was affected. Now i'm confused because the motor function of the 3 affected fingers(thumb, index and middle finger) is retained but the sensory function is gone, all i feel around the fingers is just pain shocks and tingling. So i dont if its a complete cut or a crush like you mentioned in the video. I'd really appreciate if you can help with further explanation.

[@Dawn-S]

I’ve had Schwannomas removed in my right lower extremity. Several inches of nerve, from the very bottom of the calf, up through the knee and into my thigh, was removed. I have drop foot because of the surgery. It seems that this is not going to be a good outcome for me. More are growing and Dr’s don’t want to keep me as a pt past the 1st visit because they don’t understand Schwannoma. They are direct in saying that.
