Reminds of some technojargon I ran across in Wikipedia:

"Compression of the median nerve as it runs deep to the transverse carpal
ligament (TCL) causes wasting of the thenar eminence, weakness of the flexor
pollicis brevis, adductor pollicis, opponens pollicis, abductor pollicis
brevis, as well as sensory loss in the distribution of the median nerve distal
to the transverse carpal ligament, sparing the superficial sensory branch given
that its branch point is normally proximal to the TCL and travels superficially
thus avoiding compression."

This is carpal tunnel syndrome in layman's terms...
