Do not ignore neck pain, it should be treated as soon as possible, otherwise there may be serious problems
Cervical radiculopathy commonly known as pinched nerve is a painful condition in which there is damage to nerve roots in the neck area (cervical spine). This results in compression and inflammation of the nerve roots thus affecting nerves attached to it. These cervical nerves are attached to shoulders, arms, hands, upper back and chest area.
Symptoms
- Burning, sharp pain emerging from neck area and radiating to shoulders, upper back, arms or hands
- Numbness and weakness in the muscles of shoulder, arm or hands
- Pain on movement of arms
- Weakened reflexes
Causes
- Cervical spondylosis in which there are degenerative changes in spine due to age
- Herniated disk in neck
- Cervical stenosis is narrowing of spinal canal which compresses the nerves of spinal cord
- Poor posture
- Injury
- Sarcoidosis is growth of inflammatory cells
- Tumour
- Infection
