Brooklyn Erbs Palsy Lawyer
Erb's palsy is a type of birth injury that comes from Brachial Plexus Paralysis. Erbs palsy
is one of the most common and serious types of shoulder dystocia injuries that can occur to a newborn during delivery. During the delivery process trauma occurs when the shoulder of an infant is stuck within the cervix of the mother. The injury takes place when the obstetrician applies intense force in order to release the shoulder of the baby from being trapped inside. It is at this moment that the consequences of such force may lead to severe nerve damage within the newborn's arm and shoulder.

Below are some symptoms related to Erbs palsy:
- Damaged nerves leading to facial paralysis
- Required assistance to sit upright
- Loss of muscle control
- Paralysis of arm and hand
- Restricted movement abilities
- Paralysis of hand and fingers
Nerves known as the brachial plexus nerves are connected to the muscles in the hands, arms and shoulders leading to the spinal cord. If the brachial plexus nerves are damaged, during the delivery process the results may be partial or complete paralysis of the muscles within that location. The lack of feeling and/or sensation may also occur. Numerous times the use of tools, such as vacuums or forceps, may be used to assist in the delivery. It has been known that the use of these tools may in fact raise the risk of injury to occur to the newborn. It is important that an experienced trained medical staff is aware of the risks that are involved and any factors that may enhance the possibility of shoulder dystocia.
