Just this week, the pain in my left shoulder has started to improve while the shooting pain down my arm on the right side has started to occur. Could this be a pinched nerve in my neck? What should my next step be?

I've had a pinched nerve a couple of times before. I also had the buttocks and ankle pain. sometimes quite severe. i took relefen (anti-inflamatory) for years. It helped a lot.
Hi Ellen my name is Jo I am sorry to say there is no pain killer that will help nerve pain and I know I have had mine for nearly 9 years in my knee after a knee replacement I finally found out I had pinched - damaged nerves and nothing will touch it BUT THERE IS HELP

the worst time I am having is with the horrible pain from my right knee down to the tips of my toes. Nerve problems apparently. I went for a Nerve Conduction test last week and was told that the L5 nerve has irritation. This pain is crazy! and moves around like nothing I have ever experienced. Sometimes the top of my foot hurts so bad that I can't even have a sheet touch it and other times I get this weird electrical sensation in the balls of my foot or sometimes in my big toe.
Peripheral neuropathy pain is best managed by keeping the problem causing it under control—diabetes, hypothyroidism, Vit B12 and folate deficiency, autoimmune disorders etc. Other than that it can also be pinched spinal nerve in lower back. At times cortisone injection, epidural injections, COX-2 inhibitors etc help. Surgery also may be required to relieve compression. It would be wise to reassess the case with a neurologist apart from taking medications.
Personal trainers know nothing about a pinched nerve. Most of them know nothing about exercise. I think you're thinking of physical therapists, but they can only help if they know what's causing the nerve to be pinched and it's something they can deal with. Surgery isn't usually necessary just for a pinched nerve, unless the cause of the nerve being pinched is something that can only be relieved surgically.
Wow...there is someone like me. My throat pain has been with me for almost 1 year now. Mine is on the left side. I've been told I have a rare case of Laryngeal Neuralgia but all the medicines they have given me have been unimpressive. I'm taking meds that help with nerve pain. I even had a nerve block that did nothing. I'm going to try another in a few weeks and hoping for relief.
Lifting, movement, etc.
I was wondering if anyone had any advice regarding the pinched nerve in my back. I've been suffering with it for over a month. It started one morning with a severe cramp in both of my calf muscles. The right calf continued to ache for about four days. It eventually turned into numbness and tingling below my knee in my right leg. Now I don't hardly have any strength at all in that area. The physical therapist has given me some exercises but I'm still struggling with overwhelming pain.
Hello, if it is nerve entrapment, then seeing a chiropractor would be worthwhile. MRI and CT scans would be the best to determine exactly what is going on, some chiropractors can order them, but if they can't, then she would need to see a GP.
Do I likely have a pinched nerve? I had, for about 2 weeks, tight neck/shoulder muscles. Since I had this a couple years ago I saw my Doctor and was prescribed muscle relaxers again. I knew my left arm was weaker feeling but attributed it to the muscles being tight for so long. I then realized that my left triceps was not working at all(before taking muscle relaxers). I also have some pain in my left shoulder and elbow.
Is 11&4 too early to have a pinched sciatic nerve? Its been on and off for about a week now, and its mostly tolerable. But sometimes I feel like I can barely pick my left leg up.
You are have the signs of a nerve being pinched. You need a mri or ct scan to see what exactly is wrong. Leaving the unchecked can result in permanent damage to the nerves and spine. Get an appointment asap and take it easy until you find out how serious it is. There is a chart on my profile showing the nerves and what they control this may be useful to you. Best of luck.
The vet said she thought it was neurological as well and thought it was a pinched nerve or herniated disc but because of her age and all that there is no surgical solution because she can't go under anesthia anymore. I just hate to loose her or see her in pain because she has been my baby and I hate to see her suffer or to leave us.
