Brachial plexus originates in the root of the neck and the nerves reach the arms and axilla. It sends the signals to the upper limb and the skin muscles. This plexus consists of the cervical nerves and are formed by the branching of the anterior rami nerves. It includes the network of the nerves in the C5-T1 region of the spinal cord.
