@doctordconline - A dermatome is an area of skin that is mainly supplied by a single spinal nerve. There are 8 cervical nerves (C1 being an exception with no dermatome), 12 thoracic nerves, 5 lumbar nerves and 5 sacral nerves. Each of these nerves relays sensation (including pain) from a particular region of skin to the brain. ❤️ & SHARE #video #instavideo #neurology #dermatome #nerve #sensation #neuroscience #neurosurgery #usmle #mbbs #md #medlife #medicine #medschool @doctordconline #usmlestep1 #doctor #doctordconline #nhs #nurse #nursing #amc #plab #pmdc #physicianassistant

TIL Dermatomes

Learned about these in virology w.r.t. shingles! Basically, each section of your skin (yes, YOUR skin!) is enervated by (has nerves rooted in) a specific part of the spine. Symptoms in a specific dermatome can thus be indicative of a problem with the corresponding spinal nerve.

In the case of shingles, the virus responsible (VZV, the same as chickenpox) can hide out in your spinal nerves and cause eruptions along the corresponding dermatome, usually the thoracic ones-- T1 - T12, in the diagram above. I really like the concept of being able to directly map skin to spine!
