Cause: Pressure of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, arm, or forearm
Strength (initial): Wrist extension, radial deviation, grip
Neurodynamics: Radial nerve sliders
ROM (initial): Wrist flex and wrist extension
Cause: Pressure on median nerve at forearm
Common s/s: Pronation weakness
Strength (initial): Wrist flex/ext; Ulnar/radial deviation; grip
Neurodynamics: Ulnar nerve sliders
Common s/s: Weak grip
