The longest nerves are usually affected, with sensory loss in a glove and stocking distribution. The sensory loss is often accompanied by loss of power and autonomic involvement. There is loss of pain and light touch, with decreased reflexes and muscle wasting in affected parts. Sensory loss due to a lesion of the brachial plexus will appear in the distribution of two or more peripheral nerves if the lesion is infraclavicular and in the distribution of multiple cervical dermatomes if the lesion is supraclavicular. All sensory modalities may be involved. In a patient with a distal symmetric sensorimotor neuropathy, the sensory examination shows reduced sensitivity to light touch, pin-prick and temperature in a stocking-and-glove distribution.

Peripheral neuropathy is damage to the peripheral nerves and results in a tingling, painful, or burning sensation in the extremities. It most commonly occurs in the legs. Other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy can include weakness and numbness. Sensory symptoms may be negative or positive, diffuse or focal. Negative sensory symptoms include feelings of numbness or deadness, which patients may describe as being akin to wearing gloves or socks. Loss of balance, especially with the eyes closed, and painless injuries due to loss of sensation are common. Sensory Motor Neuropathy And Bone Deformities. The long nerves of the hands and legs are affected more than the short nerves. The person feels severe burning pain in the hands and feet. The distribution of pain is usually described as glove and stocking distribution. There is also loss of sensations in the feet, loss of reflexes and muscle The receptors of the feet are considerably farther removed from their cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia than are the receptors of the hands. The metabolic demands on these neurons is substantial which accounts for their being the first affected and for the early appearance of sensory loss in the feet in a "stocking" distribution. The longest nerves are usually affected, with sensory loss in a glove and stocking distribution. The sensory loss is often accompanied by loss of power and autonomic involvement. There is loss of pain and light touch, with decreased reflexes and muscle wasting in affected parts. Sensory loss due to a lesion of the brachial plexus will appear in the distribution of two or more peripheral nerves if the lesion is infraclavicular and in the distribution of multiple cervical dermatomes if the lesion is supraclavicular.

Abnormal sensations, such as ‘pins and needles’, tingling, prickling, reduced or even loss of sensation.

What is the nature of sensory involvement? Large fiber neuropathies may involve sensory and/or motor nerves, and most patients will present with a “glove and stocking” distribution of sensory loss [27]. stocking and glove distribution. temperature in a stocking distribution, mildly reduced foot areflexia, mild sensory loss including the perineum, and neu-.

Patients with lacunar stroke may rarely present with sensory loss in median or ulnar nerve distribution.[7] Although patients with spinal canal stenosis present  Polyneuropathies usually present with a symmetric stocking-glove pattern of In mononeuropathy, sensation should be decreased only in that nerve's distribution.
