If you run your finger back and forth across the nerve you will probably get some pins and needles in your little finger. You have probably opened a few mechanical sensors and the nerve is reacting normally. Look at the nerve image. Nerves are cords. They are about 50% ligament, which makes them quite strong, and about 50% neurones. Some of these neurones inform the spinal ULNAR NERVE OLECRANON MEDIAL EPICONDYLE cord and brain about activity of the sensors and others drive muscles and sweat glands.

Altered muscle activity is part of your response to iDjury and threat. But, in the long term there can be costs. We discuss this on page 90. 6.
