My buddy said it might be a slip disk but he's no expert. I cant grap anything wth my left arm to heavy and I can barely get into my car. what should I do? anyhelp wil be great. thanks


Answers:

Well as a physical therapists I think you should go and see your primary doctor for he could do some studies like an MRI and X-rays to see if you have any trauma on the spine and will give a right diagnostic. After you get the right diagnostic he will recommend you medicine (muscle relaxers, NSAIDS, etc) and Physical Therapy. In physical therapy they will managed the pain. Its also good if you do contrast baths to reduce the tension around the dorsal area that means putting heating pads for 15min and then cold pack for 10 min.
