A member asked:
Can you tell me how can they fix a c7 t1 herniated disc pinching a c8 nerve root, lots of pain in hands and arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Three possibilities , one is anterior neck fusion, second is an artificial disk replacement , third is a posterior discectomy. All outpatient surgeries. The best procedure for you is dependent on the cause and the ability of the surgeon.
