A simple question, for example, if my patient has tingling in the ulna nerve pathway and feels numb in the radial pathway, on the documentation chart would I tick both boxes for tingling and numb under sensation?
Normally we just tick one box, for example, warm hands, as a patient can't have both warm and cool hands....
Am i allowed to tick more than one option for sensation as there are more than one nerve pathway we are assessing?
Thank you :)
