A member asked:
What do you think i should do about a pinched nerve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends where and: How bad. If there is motor issues related, may need surgery. If only sensory and pain, then anything from physical therapy to injections can help. It just depends if we are talking about low back, neck, how bad, and how long it has been around. See a pain or spine physician with experience in radiculopathy for a thorough physical exam.
