Brachial Plexus Birth Injury
Brachial plexus birth injury is an injury to the brachial plexus nerves that occurs in about one to three out of every 1,000 births. The nerves of the brachial plexus may be stretched, compressed, or torn in a difficult delivery. During childbirth, a brachial plexus injury can happen if the baby's neck is stretched to one side. The injury affects the nerve network that provides feeling and muscle control in the shoulder, arm, forearm, hand, and fingers.
