how do you speed nerve regeneration?

Nerve regeneration is a very slow process. It may take years. But ensure you take the B-complex vitamins like Vit B6 (Pyridoxine), Thiamine, and cobolamin (B12). They will help.

I work in the field of nerve regeneration, though not optic nerve.  The optic nerve is a bundle of literally millions of microscopic fibers-all in a space a few millimeters in circumference.  The nerve cells that produce these fibers are found in the brain itself.  Retinal cells in the eye signal to these fibers, which then carry the signal to the cells of the brain.  In order to transplant an eyeball, you would have to connect those millions of nerve fibers to the retinal cells, in exactly the right order.  There are other complications, but that is the most difficult-we simply dont know how to make those millions of microscopic connections.

This is a complication that while not common is experienced by all dentist and especially Oral Surgeons in the removal of teeth.  Just make sure to call your dentist and keep him informed.  Especially, when new symptoms arise.  If the nerve is just bruised it will return relatively quickly 2-3 weeks.  If the nerve was damaged a bit more it could take several months.  Just be aware when you are eating hot food to approach from the side that still has sensation so that you don't burn your self.  Avoid chewing gum and anything that might cause you to bite yourself. \n\ngood Luck.\n\nOne more thing, if it starts to feel all prickly like tiny needles poking you that is a good thing thats the nerve repairing itself.

Nerve damage! if your nerves got severed and were reattached, you need to keep doing the Physical therapy you did at the sessions. It has to be a constant thing.If it is painful, remember that whilst the nerves are still healing , it will hurt. If this was a recent accident please DO NOT rest your hand for extensive periods of time thinking that your hand will heal and be better, it is the complete opposite and your hand will become immobile for sure from not moving.Compare it to an ungreased bycicle chain, you hear it creaking,squeaking because it wasn't greased and it doesn't want to go anywhere.That is why you want to keep your fingers and hand moving as much as you can. Get a remote and do finger pressing excersising, from the top button all the way down. Do this every half hour while you are awake. Are you wearing a hand brace? Something that keeps your hand tight, it's an elastic thing.Try not to wear it too much.\nOpen and close your fist as much as you can, same as the finger excersices. If you have no open wounds on your hands, try using a few drops of pepermint oil with a base of avocado oil (Bath and body works) and rub it on your hands, it should really help with your numbness as the pepermint oil gets your nerves reacting, and it penetrates.\nIf you can't move the fingers willingly, move each finger up and down and flex them with the help of your other hand and fingers. Don't let the hand get lazy.Keep it moving.Nerves will regenerate and they will pick up where they left off if you keep them busy and functioning. Keep the idea of the ungreased bycicle chain in your head and move your hand and use it so it doesn't stop working.Don't become unmotivated or lazy. Do things as normal. Even if your hand is in pain, do things, it's because your nerves are trying to repair themselves that they hurt and it feels like shooting pain.So the more you move, the better it will be. I cannot say that enough.

Put salt on them. It chemically burns them and creates a seal so they heal faster.

1. Nerve impulse signal integrity and discrimination for neural synaptic interface.\n\n2. Artificial muscle (polymer hydogel)\n\n3. Artificial bone using nanotechnology to grow as the subject grows this would also apply also to the artificial muscles.

I had that sort of thing a few weeks ago, doctor said it was a trapped nerve and he reffered my to a physio.\nSo have a word with your doc.

My hunch is that with a bit more time separation between the stimuli, that the nerve cells would have time to recover between firing signals, and that they could build a greater action potential.  \n\nI'm a bit perplexed as to why you'd be tackling this problem at 7:30 AM on Thanksgiving Day......or are you in Europe?

Also, move your knees from side to side. It releases a trapped nerve if it's siatica.

People tend to confuse Bells Palsy and Facial Nerve Palsy. They are different in that Bells Palsy is usually of an unknown cause. Facial nerve palsy can be tracked to a compressed nerve, trauma, pathology, etc. In order to get the nerve back to the point of recovery, you must first remedy the underlying problem. Decompress a compressed nerve, fight the virus attacking the nerve, remove the mass pressing against the nerve, etc. Then, you must allow the nerve to regenerate. This can take days, months, and even years. In some cases, there may not be recovery at all. But feel comfortable in knowing that this is very unlikely. The biggest problem that faces a healing seventh cranial nerve, is synokinesis. This is when the brain reprograms itself to recognize the regenerated nerve, but does so improperly. For example, when you yawn, your eye will close, etc. To avoid this, do not try to overuse the nerve, or force it into exercising, particularly in the early stages. Let it rest, let it regenerate and heal. Then eat a healthy diet, and take Methylcobalamin. Your Dr. should also prescribe a strong course of steroids early on.

Treat it like arthritis and modify your grasps and be careful of your fine motor skills.\nListed below is the carpal link on webmd...might be handy...

Make your body quickly do what?

pulled muscles just need rest.....dont push it.....let it heal up.......\n\nhigh protein diet will make it heal faster.....also try heat and cold therapy....those icyhot creams and patches work pretty well......\n\nwhatever you do dont put full explosive force on it......that will make it much worse....you might even tear it.....\n\nfor example if its a hamstring.....dont sprint EVER or it will be extremely painful and take much longer to heal......

The best ways are walking and swimming. They are both easy on the body and don't take a lot of time. You can begin walking for 20 minutes a day or swimming for the same. Build up from there. The 'no pain no gain' saying is wrong, pain means something is wrong and then you can get hurt. Go slow, build up to it. If you are over 40, careful not to over do it too soon, sore muscles are common and take longer to heal. Unfortunately.

I had severely bruised both my knees in an auto accident.  It really messed up the sensation.  Like you, the structures were "fine", but since it injured the nerves, it took nearly a year to improve...actually, and at about 5 years it was about 75%.  Now, 15 years out, my knees feel good, but they're still not quite right and certain sensations a little strange.\n\nI would imagine that a little brief, gentle massage along with heat/cold/heat/cold alternating (2 mins@) every day would help to stimulate the nerves to regenerate more effectively.  \n\nIn the meantime, do whatever level of exercise that you can; this will speed healing.  Be patient, and remind your knees that it's safe to come out to play again!\n\nLove & Light!

Have you seen a doctor or had x-rays yet?\nAs opposed to just staying home hurting and doing nothing...\n\nI had back surgery 3 years ago and did not get well even after they straightened my spine and moved the crushed nerve...\nThe problem was the damage was already done, so no amount of surgery would fix it...\nI am now disabled for life and I still don't know what caused it...\nPeople ask me if I was in a car accident or took a bad fall and I say no...\nMy doctor says it was because of calcium deposits on my bones and the bone spur growth caught and crushed the nerve...\nSo I would recommend seeing several doctors and getting several x-rays before surgery...\nAlso see a Pain Management Doctor, he will prescribe the right meds for your pain and you could avoid surgery...
