PainMedsRelaxants&PT: A combination of Anti inflammatory meds with or without muscle relaxants and Physical Therapy may help the pain.But you also need to find the cause of pinch nerve by MRI if the spine before you start on physical therapy.Most patients respond to this regimen.But if pain persists and with MRI fIindings,you may need Pain Management or a consult with a Spine Speacialist
