The brachial plexus is a nerve bundle that starts in the neck and upper back and connects the nerves in your arms, wrists, and hands to your spinal cord.
Brachial plexus injuries can occur from stress, pressure, or overstretching. They can cause significant pain as well as loss of sensation and weakness in the hand, arm, and shoulder.
