neuritic
Relating to nerve damage
Neuritic relates to neuritis—inflammation of a nerve or nerves—or to neurites, the projections extending from nerve cells.
In medical contexts, neuritic pain results from nerve inflammation: The patient reported neuritic symptoms in both legs.
In neuroscience, neuritic growth describes the development of axons and dendrites: neuritic plaques, neuritic sprouting.
