nerve function

Nerve function refers to the activity and performance of nerves in transmitting electrical signals throughout the body.

Nerves carry sensory information to the brain, motor commands to muscles, and regulate involuntary processes like heartbeat and digestion.

When doctors assess nerve function, they're testing whether these pathways are working properly.

Loss of nerve function can result from injury, disease, or compression.
