Compressed nerve or pinched nerve?!


Question: Compressed nerve or pinched nerve?
Okay so I suffered an injury to my neck and I had an MRI done and the specialist called me and said that I have no nerve damage and that I suffered a ligament injury, however I still have tingling and numbness in my arm/ fingertips. So what could be causing this?

These things are often misdiagnosed. It's really hard to tell. What often helps is massage - easing the tension in the area - relaxation - yoga. But unfortunately people will have this tingling in hands and feet for years and never know why.



Hi Carlito. It might be wise to have a thorough evaluation by your family Chiropractor.

You had an MRI - who ordered it? What was the working diagnosis prior to the MRI? The MRI should have been ordered to confirm the working diagnosis. If no working diagnosis was made prior to ordering the test, then that doctor is not likely fully trained in diagnosing cervical spine disorders.

Best wishes and good luck.



you may not have nerve damage, but you do have nerve interference. see an hio method upper cervical specific chiropractor.
