Pinched nerve?: Cervical radiculopathy, commonly called a "pinched nerve" occurs when a nerve in the neck is compressed or irritated where it branches away from the spinal cord. This may cause pain that radiates into the shoulder, as well as pins and needles or weakness that travels down the arm and into the hand. The majority of patients with cervical radiculopathy get better over time and do not need treatment.
