Spinal Cord Injury, Motor Neurons, and Reflexes 

Thank you very much doctor, you were able to explain an incomprehensible 2 hour lecture in 8 minutes completely understandable lecture, I think our professor needs to watch your videos too

this is the first time in my medical life i understand UMN and LMN clearfully thank you a lot

Thank you so much! Neurology isn't my strongest subject and I find it quite overwhelming. You've just explained the concept of UMN and LMN lesions in such a simple way and I finally understand, woo! Thanks again. Take care

The HOURS i spent trying to understand this concept and in 8 minutes it just makes sense. Wow. Thank you so much

Your videos are the best! I'm studying medicine & your guys' videos are seriously helping me out. Thank you so much:)

You just explained this in a way that I’m understanding for the first time. Thank you so so much! 😭

Thanks so much ! your 8 mins of teaching is better than my 2 hours of lecture in my prof. class. you help a lot for my studying in occupational therapy course

Thank you for making this topic so easy to understand!

This was so useful for my clinical skills exam coming up, thank you!

Your students are so lucky to have you. Thank you for sharing this with those of us too far away to learn from you in-person.

I'm in my second year of med school currently and boy your videos are a god send. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this explanation. It helps me to understand spinal cord damage due to a tumor. I will be watching more to hopefully learn is my mobility will return. May God Bless you for your marvelous teachings!

The best video i have seen so far.its crisp and concise . Thankyou for this session

Graduate student here, this helped me so much more than reading my textbook did! So easy to digest and the visuals are so helpful. Thank you!!

I love this channel laterally. Thanks for this amazing video

I wish this video is longer Doc. I kinda got lost near the end. Thank you though as you explained it well beforehand.

Thank u! So comprehensive! ❤

Very well explained,I have spasticity in both legs,I had the ankle/foot test it was positive.My rheumatologist said upper neurons,clonus & spinal cord compression.I couldn't take it all in,thankyou for your explanation 🧠🦵🦶👍

i literally cannot thank you enough for how you explain things. i am currently in PA school and all of your videos have been helping me understand things instead of just memorizing things. i cannot express enough how thankful i am for your videos! i recommend them to everyone!

Thank you so much for explaining this..but can you explain about the condition below the level of injury in Lmn and umn please

Thank you, God bless you...

Thank you.

Thank you so much..

Thank you so much 💛

I fully understand how to work UMN and LMN😊

Thank you so much 👍🏻

This video is amazing but one thing: perhaps moving the drawing of the leg to midline of the cerebrum to coincide with the homunculus would help with understanding. Amazing job!

Thank you so much was very helpful 👌👌☺️

Incredibly amazing Thnkuu so much sir 🤗

Hi...i am from India ....You are very good teacher .... Keep it up ... thanks a lot 🙏

thank you!

Good presentation, though muscle power can be also severely decreased in upper motor neuron lesions.

Thank you!

Sooo fascinating

Thank u very much

Thank you sir 😁❤️

thanks❤

Very good explanation sir❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉.

you are so easy to understand, Thank you so very mucccchhhh .... is there any cure for SCI? anywhere in the world?

Amazing ❤

Thx ❤❤❤

My neurology of communication class would be a lost cause with out Dr. Matt

your the best

I wonder if my cranial cervical instability (due to Ehlers Danlos, which is now fused) is what brought on Dystonia (episodic but generalized) for me...and would this qualify as upper motor neuron or spinal cord injury?

What's the best way to reverse this after a spinal cord injury.. what diet and herbs/exercise..? My injury level c7 c6 incomplete My spasms do pretty good after a good stretch. Any advice will be great 👍🏾

Sir, could you explain why antigravity muscles (flexors for the upper extremity and extensors for the LE) are more affected in (not completely paralytic) UMN lesions? I read it has to do with inhibitory pathways, but unfortunately I do not fully understand it!

I have a question regarding hypertonia and hyper-reflexia (5:00 of video). If someone has an UMN lesion, could the hypertonia/hyperreflexia also be clonis?

Dr Matt, so hyperreflexia with flaccid limbs? UMN & LMN with problems from disinhibition. Ie a patient with flaccid limbs will move the limbs with stimulation to just the hamstrings.

my daughter is tipotoing and there is no real diagnosis, also inwardly turned left leg. she is 15 now. do you have any suggestion?

Dr.Mike, I have one question.... why isit LMN lesion in the arm and UMN lesion in leg when there is Cervical injury? I am very blur about this. 😢

Epic

💪🏻

What about people who have a flaccid hemiparesis from a stroke? Why do they present like that?

that's amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 i love you

Thank you for your effort, but I would like you to be a little slower in explaining because English is not my original language .. Thank you again

dr mike is hot asf. thank you

somebody get this guy an adult size t-shirt. his body is too atrocious

mmmmmoa😘
