    Thanks so much! I've been reading and reading trying to find out what this stretch reflex is, but this had me understand in les than 10 minute!

    THANK YOU. I'm studying for a neuroanatomy final, the Powerpoints for which are a confusing-ass mess, and now I actually understand how the stretch reflex works. Very clear and descriptive.

    I was under the impression that in a reflex arc the afferent neuron connect to an interneuron in the spinal cord before connecting to an efferent neuron

    Can you describe how foot drop occurs with injury at the lower back?

    • @sab9351
      @sab9351 Před 5 lety +2

      Ackram Jin :an injury at the lower back would be located at the L4-L5 vertebrae most likely, these vertebrae/nerves are connected to the sacral plexus which controls most of the motor and sensory functions in the leg. Because of this an injury to the nerve can effect the ability to flex the foot, resulting in foot drop. Other symptoms of this injury may include loss of vibratory sensation and two point discrimination, and loss of ability to flex at the knee.

    how fast does the muscle stretch reflex happen on avg.?

  • @mariospiteri8561
    @mariospiteri8561 Před 6 lety +1

    Very well and simple explanation..! You earned another you tuber...! I want to understand why sometimes i have some tingiling in my foot...!? About 10 years ago i felt down walking on a garage ramp hitting my horse tail. I feld a big pain in my lower back when i felt down hitting on the horse tail..! Do you think that the tingiling in my foot its because of this..?? I have never feld this before a 1 year ago...!! What do you think about this plsss..??🤔

    • @1S1KNLJS
      @1S1KNLJS Před 4 lety

      10 years ago? And know you feel symptoms, unlikely but could be. But it is usually a sign from your body and should get it checked out as it can mean many things. Not a doctor though so idk 🤷‍♂️

  • @SY-ni9lb

    which afferent and efferent nuerones are involved in the stretch refex?

  • @jackieoneill838
    @jackieoneill838 Před 6 lety

    I have been getting jerks from my left leg for a few years, and I have not been to a doctor for this at all. Can anyone please let me know what it is because my full leg will go away from me as well at the same time, and force my self back up right then start to walk with pain and my leg even though I know that my leg is swelling up at the same time. I have had this for years and years.

    what about hyperreflexia? Where is the physiological inhibition of the muscle reflex response that is lost in some CNS-pathologies?

  • @coachsouvik
    @coachsouvik Před 4 lety

    From my understanding , when it's stretched or reflexed then you hit with a rubber hammer on knee cap tendon...It ll flex and contract.....Not stretched...You said stretched in the video...

  • @justinsantos9684
    @justinsantos9684 Před 7 lety

    wait i still dont get it. what does the stimulus exactly do to the system such that it is detected by the muscle spindle?

    • @bendflikshteyn
      @bendflikshteyn Před 7 lety +4

      the stimulus (like the hammer) stretches the muscle. the sensory fibers of the muscle spindle are the afferent part of the reflex and pick up on this stretch. the motor neuron corrects for that stretch with contraction.
      tldr: stretch

      Hyper reflexia can occur in an upper motor neuron lesion ..but here they s no involvement in UMN

    @bdog1g Před 7 lety

    This video was very helpful, however I do have to correct you. There is no such thing as a lower leg. The leg is from your knee to your ankle. Anything above your knee to your hip is considered the Thigh.
