Avatar f tn Today I've tried laying on my back twice and both times I've had a shooting pain go up my chest, neck and my jaw and my teeth are sore. Normal?
Avatar f tn How many months post op are you? i'm six months and I'm still having pain in the neck. My recommendation use ice and heating packs as much as possible.
Avatar f tn I had it done and it is amazing how much it has helped. Gone from taking megadoses of pain killers for the neck and shoulder/back pain to letting my almost full bottle of pain killers expire. The nerves do grow back but hopefully the protrusion has receded enough to not be afecting the spine/nerves. ALSO, found that this pain is not uncommon for those bending down to read the computer screen for hours on end. Hope this helps.
Avatar m tn A van side swipped her mini-van and cause some severe neck damage. This damage cause constant pain in her neck, migrains, and some numbness. The treatment they prescribed was getting cold injections to the nerves in neck and head. She received three treatments over the past year with some short term relief of pain but always come back. Beside this treatment she been doing a routine of physiotherapy, deep tisse massage, water therapy with some relief but not enough.

Avatar m tn This is my first posting on this forum. My neck pain has become much worse with time. I initially had a pinched nerve and then the pain started in my neck and went down my arm. I feel fine when I hold my arm over my head. I got x-rays and MRI done at OrthoTexas. The doctors over there said I have cervical neck pain and it needs to be treated asap. I am looking for a second opinion. Please help.
666921 tn?1254990618 all I had was phone call abour MRI results. Yes I do get problems other than neck pain but do not know what pressure on nerves can cause other than pain!! Am I right in thinking that LYME can cause the arthritis? What causes the extremely stiff neck that some Lyme patients experience at on set. I presume it is muscle tension-I guess unrelenting tension in neck/shoulder area can start to impact on the skeleton by pulling etc; I haven't ruled out Lyme.
Avatar m tn I am writing for my wife she has had 2 surgeries for Chiari and developed over time pain in the back of her neck when she swallows does anyone else have this problem or has anyone had this an had it fixed
Avatar f tn precipitation of head pain by neck movement or awkward neck positions, head pain when external pressure is applied to the neck or occipital region, restricted range of motion of the neck, and neck, shoulder and arm pain. Treatment for cervicogenic headache includes physical therapy, medications, behavioral therapy, and other modalities.
Avatar n tn In this case, once the problem is treated, the pain will resolve. It can also be the result of referred pain from another part of the body. If pain is caused by an activity, modify or stop the activity. Diabetic neuropathies result from diabetic microvascular injury involving peripheral nerves to the arm or foot.

1422878 tn?1284584593 im having neck pain...my arm hurts. and my hand is tingling. my neck hurts when i move it.... and it makes a cracking sound when try to move it. What is going on?
Avatar m tn I was told that it could take a year for the nerves to heal.I had an ACDF 3 years ago.I still have some arm and neck pain plus occasional numbness in my thumb.I am not 100% cured but I am grateful for the surgical improvements.
Avatar n tn Recently I had some tests to find out why I was having pain in my arms and hands. The EMG and follow up tests revealed carpal tunnel syndrome and muscular atrophy in the hands. They followed up with a MRI and say that I need surgery on my neck for some nerve problem. I don't really understand the logistics of it all, but my question is: Would it hurt me to wait out the surgery a bit and try some natural things such as exercise, diet, homeopathy, acupuncture etc.?
Avatar f tn I have not taken any narcotics since April 30th but, since August 3 have been in considerable amount of pain with 2 pinched nerves (specifically C-5, 6 and 7). My left shoulder and all the way down my arm and to the tips of my fingers "speak loudly to me"!! I have had a MRI and waiting to see the neurosurgeon Sept. 30! Sept 30 feels so long away when you are hurting!
Avatar n tn About 3 or 4 days ago I started getting pain starting on both sides of my neck, starting at my jaw line. It radiates down and into my shoulders. It's a kind of burning pain. Don't take any medications. When it happens it lasts a few minutes then stops but usually starts again right away, then stops totally.
Avatar n tn precipitation of head pain by neck movement or awkward neck positions, head pain when external pressure is applied to the neck or occipital region, restricted range of motion of the neck, and neck, shoulder and arm pain. Treatment for cervicogenic headache includes physical therapy, medications, behavioral therapy, and other modalities. Occipital neuralgia is caused by irritation or injury to two nerves that run from the upper neck to the back of the head.
Avatar f tn s squirting. You should go see someone who specialize in nerves. Nerves can cause bad pain and headaches too.
Avatar n tn The pain is due to irritation or injury of nerves, pinching of nerves by tight neck muscles, compression of nerves as it leaves the spine secondary to osteoarthritis or tumors in the neck. Local inflammation or infection, gout, diabetes etc. you need to consult a neurologist who will do a detailed neurological examination, X-ray upper spine, eliciting tenderness over affected nerve, relief from pain after an anesthetic block will be needed to confirm diagnosis.

7489440 tn?1442008376 Today I visited with my NL, the new symptoms I been having is caused by two pinched nerves in my neck. According to her she says that when I am having my symptoms my brain swells causing the two nerves at the base of my neck to become pinched between my skull and brain. Is this even possible? Have any of you all heard of this or had this happen to you??? Any info would be appreciated.
