does the fracture of .MEDIAL EPICONDYLE....SENSORY LOSS OVER FOREARM FLEXOR MUSCLES..?true or false

1) false i think..the flexors are by radial nerve and not by ulnar ( only flexor carpu ulnaris of foraem

3)i think true..radial nerve innervates triceps

i didnt open a book just from my memoey so correct me if im wrong 🙂

# of medial epicondyle damages ulnar nerve.so there will be sensory loss of forearm flexors
radial nerve suppiles posterior compartment,extensor muscles.
radial groove is present near the head of humerus.so a lesion below the groove will cos weakness distal to it.hence weakness of extension of elbow joint

#of the medial epicondyle involves the ulnar nerve.but almost all flexors r supplied by the median nerve except flexor carpi ulnaris and the medial half of flexor digitorum profundus which is supplied by ulnar .n
extensor muscles r supplied by radial .n .so the ans wer to q 1would be false
