State

The peripheral nervous system consists of every nerve outside the brain and spinal cord.

The nerves running down the arm to the fingertips are peripheral, carrying signals both directions.

Watch for

Peripheral does not mean minor. Damage here removes sensation and movement as completely as central damage.
