Re: other medical due to bpi
I have other medical problems that stem from the OBPI. I have carpel tunnel, arthritis, ulnar nerve damage, and I'm bi-polar (my OBPI is one of my triggers). Most of the secondary injuries are due to compensating for my OBPI arm.

Re: other medical due to bpi
so far for me, I have a lot of pain that stems from the bpi. My doctor thinks its a constant burcitus(sp) casused by my unstable scapula. So far I am able to control the pain with Kinesio tape. So I am pretty fortunate that way!

Re: other medical due to bpi
Hello,
My niece was born with L Erb's Palsy in 1997. Her left arm did not function, as a result she did not crawl. Residual physical effects are as follows: Left scapula protrudes, Left should blade sticks out, Left arm doesn't raise as high as right. It is also noted that she has difficulty skipping.
In the past 2 years, she has been having difficulties in school. Primarily in reading comprehension, handwriting, math, and memory skills. Is it possible that this learning disability is an indirect result of the Erb's Palsy due to the child missing the crawling stage. I have read many articles on this vital developmental stage and it's effect on "brain wiring".
Please advise if you have any insight in this situation.
