A business executive with a background in athletics training and pain management, Homer Zulaica has a wealth of experience in areas such as cardiovascular and orthopedic health. Homer Zulaica’s expertise encompasses peripheral neurosurgery, which centers on the body’s nerves that lie beyond the brain and spinal cord.
The peripheral nerves encompass motor nerves that trigger movement and sensory nerves that transmit sensation. The latter nerves are sensitive to elements such as pressure, temperature, and pain. Areas they help control include perspiration and temperature, as well as blood circulation.
In cases where pressure is exerted on these nerves, lack of oxygen may result in abnormal sensations such as numbness, prickliness, and pain. Causes of nerve damage include diabetes mellitus, alcoholism, thyroid hormone imbalance, vitamin deficiency, and compression syndromes, perhaps the best-known of which is carpal tunnel syndrome. In many cases, the cause of the condition is unknown.
