Diagnosing nerve and muscle lesions and the pain associated with them is generally considered difficult as they display a wide variety of symptoms and the mere thought of the extensive anatomical details is a deterrent. However, these reservations are unfounded. A targeted patient history and practical examination techniques that can be learned make it possible to recognize many lesions. This book will also offer assistance in these situations by presenting the newest ideas on how symptoms arise and the ensuing knowledge of diagnostics and therapy. Furthermore, familiar know-how is refreshed in pictures and practice-related texts. This book is not intended as a textbook, but rather as a guideline for routine practice, and its numerous illustrations can be helpful for explaining the situation to the patient.
