what is chronic d enervation ? I have it bilateral L5S1 myotomes and I have significant reduction of the peroneal nerve action potentials bilaterally most likely is from severe axonal loss at the L5 root level, what does this mean?
Chronic enervation of the nerve is loss of myelin covering of the nerves which helps in conduction of impulse along the nerves. There are various reasons both acute and chronic. Acute is injury to the nerve and the most common chronic cause is nutritional and destruction of nerve due to pressure over the nerve root seen in spondylosis and chronic disease like diabetes and inflammatory lesions like leprosy, polio. So we have to find the cause of enervation in your case and treat it accordingly.
