How can i take care of a pinched nerve from a snowboard wrist injury?

Depends: First of all, which nerve? Does it hurt or create motor problem? Ultrasound examination, MRI and EMG help to assess the magnitude of damage. Treatment may be conservative or surgical.

Decompress: If you still have symptoms since last winter then you need to have surgery to decompress the nerve before you have permanent damage. See a hand surgeon.
