Question:

My husband is experiencing a 6th cranial nerve palsy that started on Aug2.?

On Aug 4 he had an MRI done to see if there was any blockage of the bood to the nerves and muscles, or if there was a tumor or any other obvious reason for the palsy.His blood work did not show any problems with hypertension or diabetes which are the two most common reasons for this type of palsyThis is not related to Bell's palsyIt is a very specific nerve in the brain that effects the muscles in the eye.The only other cause is trauma to the brain, such as a car accident .My real question is, could a trucking accident that he was in Sept2006 be related to this palsyThe accident involved a crane boom coming through the windshield of his truck and demolishing the cabAlthough he escaped without any obvious physical injuries (except for abrasions on his left arm and side and a tear on the femur muscle ) he did apparently quot;white outquot; from the trauma of the impact and noiseHe had to bend over to the left to escape being cut in half by the boom.

Answer:

I do not think that the car accident can be the cause of this nerve palsyIf it was directly caused by trauma, you would expect to have symptoms right away, or in a very short period of timeThe MRI will probably be able to show if there are any space occupying lesionsWish you the very best.
specificthat's buffed out and shined to a reflect endthat's various artwork, yet with the excellent kit (air powered buffers) and the excellent polish, you're able to do it and it will seem exceedingly much as stable as chrome.
