Erb's palsy is a form of brachial plexus palsy seen at birth. The brachial plexus is a network of nerves near the neck that give rise to all the nerves of the arm. These nerves provide movement and feeling to the shoulder, arm, hand, and fingers. Palsy means weakness, and brachial plexus birth palsy causes arm weakness and loss of motion. #drratnavratan #pediatricorthopedics #erbspalsy #BPBP #Nerveexercises #brachialplexus #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #disability #disabilityawareness #personalinjury #adaptation #microsurgery

One or two of every 1,000 babies have this condition. It is often caused when an infant's neck is stretched to the side during a difficult delivery.

Most infants with brachial plexus birth palsy will recover both movement and feeling in the affected arm, often with daily physical therapy exercises. Parents play an active role in helping their child recover maximum function in the affected arm.

In an affected infant the arm is rotated in toward the body and the infant cannot move the arm effectively. Daily exercises by parents is the main treatment method for Erb's palsy in first year of life.

Because a baby cannot move the affected arm all alone, parents must take an active role in keeping the joints limber and the functioning muscles fit. Your doctor or a physical therapist will teach you how to do exercises with your baby to keep your baby's arm in good condition.

Daily physical therapy and range-of-motion exercises, done as often as possible during the day, begin when a baby is about 3 weeks old. The exercises will maintain the range of motion in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand. This will prevent the joint from becoming permanently stiff, a condition called "joint contracture." The video demonstrates the technique of exercises to be used by parents in their babies.

If there is no change over the first 3 to 6 months, your doctor may suggest surgery on the nerves to improve the potential outcome. In grown up children, the affected arm is noticeably smaller than the unaffected arm. This occurs because nerves do have an effect on growth. Although the affected arm will continue to grow as the child grows, it grows at a slower pace, and the size difference will become more noticeable as the child gets older.

Children are very adaptable. Be supportive and encouraging, and focus on all the things your child can do. This will help your child develop a healthy sense of self-esteem and compensate for any limitations in function.
