What can be done for a nerve compression in the neck? what are some if the symptoms? please help
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What are yours?: How about if we turn the question around and asked, "what symptoms do you have in the neck, shoulders, or arms?" let's see if they fit the suspicion for a "pinched nerve" in the neck. Conservative things for nerves which are compressed in the neck include physical therapy with ranges of motion exercises, at times massotherapy, at times ultrasound and diathermy treatments, and at times traction.
