A member asked:
Can a pinched nerve cause a hemiparesis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A single pinched nerve may cause weakness in the distribution of that nerve only. Hemiparesis=weakness on half the body should be caused by something larger like a stroke or compression of the spinal cord/disease of the spinal cord.
