Neck pain or nerve irritation causing discomfort, numbness, or weakness in the arms or shoulders.
Cervical radiculopathy, often called a “pinched nerve,” occurs when a nerve in the neck is compressed or irritated, typically due to a herniated disc, bone spur, or spinal stenosis. This condition can cause sharp pain, numbness, or weakness radiating from the neck into the shoulders, arms, or hands. While often manageable with conservative treatments, severe cases may require surgical intervention to relieve nerve pressure.
If you experience persistent neck or arm pain, numbness, or weakness lasting more than 4-6 weeks, consult a specialist. Immediate evaluation is recommended if symptoms significantly impair hand function, grip strength, or daily activities, indicating potential nerve damage requiring prompt attention
