Explanation

Nerves are like the body's electrical wiring system. They carry messages between the brain and the rest of the body, including the skin, muscles, and organs. These messages help us to feel sensations, move our bodies, and control many bodily functions. Damage to the nerves can cause problems with these functions, leading to symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness.
