Compression at these levels may result in limited neck mobility,
pain, stiffness, or difficulty in head movement in various directions
(forward, backward, and to the sides). There might be associated
weakness in neck muscles. Correct Answer - C1-3
Motor Function: Controls head, neck movement, upward shoulder
motion, diaphragm control (breathing), and some mouth
movements.
Clinical Presentation: Compression may cause neck pain, limited
shoulder motion, difficulty in shoulder elevation, and potentially
respiratory issues due to diaphragm involvement. Numbness or
tingling might radiate into the shoulder region. Correct Answer -
C4
, Motor Function: Abduction of the shoulder (via the deltoid muscle),
flexion of the elbow and rotation of the forearm (via biceps muscle).
Clinical Presentation: Compression at C5 could lead to shoulder
weakness, especially in abduction, difficulty lifting the arm, and
weakness in elbow flexion. Sensory deficits may affect the deltoid
region, and there could be diminished biceps reflex. Correct
Answer - C5
Motor Function: Flexion of the elbow (via the biceps), extension of
the wrist (via extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis).
Clinical Presentation: Patients may experience pain or weakness in
the biceps and wrist extensors. Sensory disturbances can include
numbness or tingling that radiates down the arm to the thumb.
There could also be a diminished brachioradialis reflex. Correct
Answer - C6
Motor Function: Wrist flexion, finger extension, and elbow extension
(via triceps muscle).
Clinical Presentation: Compression at this level typically causes
pain, weakness, or numbness in the triceps, wrist flexors, and finger
extensors. Symptoms might radiate down the arm into the middle
finger. Triceps reflex could be diminished. Correct Answer - C7
Motor Function: Finger flexion.
Clinical Presentation: Compression here often presents as weakness
in finger flexion and grip strength. Numbness, tingling, or pain may
radiate into the ring and little fingers. There may also be sensory
deficits along the medial aspect of the arm and hand. Correct
