 [ Symptoms ] i dislocated my elbow about 10 years ago does having a damaged nerve contribute to how nervous you get  i am in my mid 20s i do not think my nerve is actually damaged but when i lift weights my inner nerve tends to pop out of place with each repetition the doctors i have met with recommend surgery to move my nerve more towards my bicep to keep it from popping out of place my question is if this problem i have with my nerve actually contributes to my nervousness i consider myself to get more nervous than the average person so i was wondering if this could possibly have anything to do with it [ Disease ] no your psychological nervousness has nothing to do with the nerve injury in your elbow these are two very different issues
