What You’ll Learn:

  • How to clearly distinguish between:

    • Cervical radiculopathy

    • Peripheral nerve entrapments

    • Systemic polyneuropathies (like diabetes, autoimmune conditions, chemotherapy-induced cases)

  • Pathophysiology of demyelination vs. axonal disruption

  • How to evaluate nerve irritability using clinical reasoning and exam flow

  • Common traps: misdiagnosis of carpal tunnel, misattribution of symptoms to the wrong site

  • How to approach nerve symptoms in strength athletes, older adults, and cancer survivors

  • Critical EMG/NCV interpretation basics to aid in referral decisions

Why It Matters:

Peripheral neuropathy isn’t just carpal tunnel. And not every burning sensation in the arm is cervical. The ability to distinguish nerve injuries defines clinical mastery.

This course helps you:

  • Catch polyneuropathies before they worsen.

  • Refer with confidence when systemic issues are suspected.

  • Reclaim clarity when symptoms don’t fit the textbook.

  • Build a framework that matches Ignite’s philosophy: diagnostic clarity → targeted intervention → sustainable progress.
