can a pinched nerve in your neck cause tingling in your face?
You guys are lifesavers! I am constantly thankful that I found your channel
bob and brad are such an amazing resource - its truly hard to find a good physio that is willing to deal with wcb clients and your videos are helping with my home exercises and motivations soo thank youuuuu :)
Guys are very informative and succinct!!! Thank you
You guys rock, thanx.
Amazing info and daily motivation. Great job guys!!
Neck and shoulders are def a daily struggle for me... 2 years post shoulder surgery. Thanks for the tips!
You two are so helpful and funny!!
Thanks for the very informative video. I have annoying shoulder pain when I'm walking and all the test I've done are negative. Really frustrating, but at least it's (probably) not from the neck.
You Are the best!
I thought that is what I have😓 thank you for this video 🙏🏽
What is the best pain relief exercise for a pinch nerve in the mid back
I have a pinched nerve in my neck and have all of these symptoms. I also have a strange symptom that has popped up. Extreme tinnitus in my ears.
Is it possible for all 3 of those nerves to be pinched at the same time?
First and foremost thank you for your informational videos! Your a pain saver for sure! I relieved my headache with your other videos right now. Thank you!! Secondly, when you do the nerve relief movement with the pillow… I did it and it only felt relief if my head went in the direction of the hurt side… not opposite? When I did it though, I heard alot of “squishy “ type sounds kind of behind my eyes? If that makes sense? Is that normal??
hi guys i have # 7 right now its starting to feel better now, i have had several times over the years, usuly lasts a few weeks or so. i have gotten it from Wight lifting. do you recommend seeing a doctor, sports therapy, or just self treating like i have been doing, ???
i have been doing gardening mowing an using a weed wacker and after using that i have a numb thumb and its going up to my arm its excruciating would it be from using that i wonder
Can a bulging disk be further bulged by excercise? Your last part scared me.
Do you bend your head away from the shoulder or towards the shoulder, because your other video you said to bend your head towards the shoulder, as Brad said like as if you have a string attached.
if someone is feeling any symptoms who should they go to? chiropractor, general practitioner, physical therapist, orthopedic surgeon?
When ever I lift something heavy and my head is held straight up I feel a pinch in the back of my neck, but if I do it will having my head look down I won't feel it. Is that a pinch nerve
Can giving an injectìon help out where the pain is in the neck or back.?can you respond.Thanks much & blessing.
Thank you for this series. I was worried I had a brain tumor or something 😅
Does pinched nerve cause chest pain
Great job, I have a pinched nerve between c6 and c7, I have all those issues and sometimes I get terrible pain that maybe in my elbow, forearm the the hand, fingers and center of my hand which feels like a hit spike being driven into the palm of my hand or between my thumb and pointer finger. I use many of your videos stretching and self help for pain to avoid medications whenever possible. Many the proper techniques can help prevent the worst of issues, that and cdb to help stop the inflammation of the muscles and tissues that make it worse. Good luck and God bless , keep doing the routine even if you feel okay, that's when you need it most, there is life after this , I promise, I've avoided surgery so far with self treatment with these guys help! Thank you guys so much!
You're very welcome!
Can you recommend the stretching or ... what exactly did you do... I have the same problem. Thank you
I have a C 8 pinched nerve in my neck and I get numbness in my right shoulder. But I get really bad pains in my right elbow. My neurologist is now treating me on this issue.
@@kevinport9914 I hope you've gotten a bit better!
@@kevinport9914how is your neurologist treating this?
I went to Dr. Achinback and told him my back pain started a weak back.
What if its in my shoulder and my arm!! :(
I love you
Doing some of these tests/stretches, I have tightness or a sensation of sensitivity but I wouldn't categorize it as pain. I've never been good with those 1-10 pain scale things and I wish you'd describe what you mean when you say, 'pain.' I'm right-handed and I can press places in my neck and feel sensations at the nerve terminus near my wrist or elbow and wonder if it's something to do with inflammation rather than pinching.
Finally. I have the same thing and can never find anything about it without the word “pain” being used which I don’t have either
@@lp712 how long have you been having it ? Did you fix it ?
inflammation IS pinching.
I am desperate for relief. Do you guys do virtual appointments????? I have been doing pt for a few months and nothing is getting better. I got diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome and am having the worst chronic pain.
Hubby also has terrible pain from thoracic outlet syndrome. He's exhausted every modality - too many to list here - over the years and pain meds are not sufficient. Any tips you can offer would be appreciated.
I work for amazon dsp.....no coverage for MRI.....started with burning throbbing down back of leg......which lead to neck pain and migraines.....the docs keeps treating the symptoms and not finding what's the issues......on best days. I feel throbbing in low back if siting and or laying down on it.....worst days. crippled by migraine and light sensitivity....
why my managers keeps disregarding my pain after shifts when it flares up again..
don't know what to do....I feel pressure on low back. left above buttocks. and left vertabrwa of bottom neck......just wanna be normal again and pain free but don't want to quit and have these issues forever that keep me for having a normal pain fee life ..
I was a hyperactive. hard worker...now I lay on the floorfor all my days off
I been with neck n shoulder headaches. When i sneeze or cough i feel pressure on my head and the headaches starts. i also feel it on my right eye. At time it makes me nauseous 🤢 and i have to 🤮 . Also my vision get a little blurry.
BRUH how did you knoww. This is my issue rn and it feels warm as well
i got none of these symptoms. just 5/10 pain when i look to my left or up
Hello, I'm having overlapping fingers in my right hand. The middle finger has leaned onto ring finger. What should I do? Also, I use smartphone too much
That happened to me too!
Sometimes a day or 2 of just not using the computer and cutting smartphone usage in half helps tremendously. Did you try putting your arm on a pillow and looking away? Might need to get a travel pillow for your car.
Hi I have neck pain, shoulder pain, tingling on both sides of face, jaw pain and tingling if I turn my head at times I get dizzy and shooting pains in my head and headache. I also have syncope and hearing sensitivity.
How are you now? How did you treat it?
@@mantra-shloka still having issues doctors still haven't figured out what is going on. Pain is worse at times.
@@lenoracrouch14 Hope it gets better soon. 🙏
Probably cancer
Omg! Exact symptoms I experience! It is debilitating 😢 going to physical therapy next week to see if it will help! What all have you tried to help with your symptoms?
I'm on my way gentlemen I need to be diagnosed
I have had pain around the C6 area for about almost two years now I have been to two different doctors trying to get the appointment anywhere right now and it's crazy. The doctor tells me that I just have migraines probably and prescribe me migraine medicine. From the base of my skull to my shoulder blades is real tense and painful. Also have shooting pain and numbness down the back of my arm all way to my fingertips and in my biceps constantly. Upper chest and back on the right side are always tense and tight with a constant numbness and fire throughout my arm. I'm just saying I don't think it's migraines. Been trying to get in to see a different doctor for a few months now it is a six-month waiting list for new patients
If you can’t get into your doctor soon, you could check and see if you could go straight to a physical therapist. Some clinics do private pay, and a few sessions might help a ton.
Can pinched nerve in neck cause deep throbbing tingling on the left side of neck cause a sciatica like burning pain down the backside of right leg into foot because that's what's happening to me?
Yes...I was experiencing it for a year...its reduced now.But now localized to neck and shoulder blade. I hope one day I will feel no pain..
yes. same here...also cause migraind from neck....but burning and throbbing from low back. top buttocks down back of leg...
my work won't cover MRI and put me back on duty which is probably a violation since that what needs to be checked.....
but they are quik to put us back to work against doctors orders..making it so much worse...best of luck. laying in the floor this much is depression 🫥
Thanks
No problem
I get pain when I sneeze that radiates up to my ring finger
Thank you for this!! Been suffering for 3 weeks now. After Dr visits, PT visits, ibuprofen, muscle relaxer and now the 5 days of steroids I still feel the pain. All in my left side. Mainly my shoulder, shoulder blade, neck with certain movements, numbing and tingling all down my arm into all my fingers. Looking down is very painful.
Now I haven’t heard this yet but my shoulder and into the front of my chest straight across close to my collar bone. I need to know if to normal to feel this one. It also radiates in my armpit..
The ER cleared me for anything heart related thankfully. But I’m stuck! My dr doesn’t know what it is but she’s making me take steroids to hopefully help the inflammation, then doing PT. All the exercises I found here. Which almost all irritates the pain. I feel helpless at this point. No relief just pain. The pain in my underarm and across my top left chest near my collarbone really bothers me and ignites my anxiety. I don’t know what else to do.😔
I have the very same pain. My doctor referred me to a surgeon but there is a one year wait. Mine is due to arthritis. Hope maybe this helps you
I find Tylenol for Arthritis helps and cold compresses
@@bonniebrown1305 thank you! I’m finally healing thankfully. After PT appointments, massages, meds and the one thing I knew nothing about… dry needling. I’m starting to feel better. Hopefully you’ll be able to get some relief soon!
Great! Is dry needling the same as acupuncture?
I'm In a similar situation form work injury but goes from neck to migraines or low back to sciatic nerve....amaozn dsp won't help with MRI so I really feel it's compressed nerve somewhere or maybe a few issues in neck and back.....all the pain everywhere seems to be a symptom..
..steroid did help a bit ...but I just want to be pain free like I was before I started this job.....
best of luck. I know the pain of wanting to work but laying down is all thr body allows without dizziness 😩
How long does nerve pain take to heal? Mines been on and off for 8 weeks now!
Have you gotten any relief since posting that?
@@WeatherNut27 The pain isn't as bad as what it was but still signficant - affects me every day. Pain is worse at night than morning not sure if that's common in people suffering. I've been recently told my issue is in the scalene muscles causing the pain to radiate into back and arm - seeing an osteopath next week. Hopefully I get proper relief! I have also been told light physical therapy might be an option. No deep tissue massage though.
@@Truthbomb101. Good luck. I need to set some appointments because I've had issues in the past that got resolved on their own but I was younger (30s) but now my neck/shoulder causing pain and I feel tingly in hands and feet and dizzy at times. Hope you find some answers and relief.
@@WeatherNut27 sorry to hear that. You might just need to stretch the muscles and rest for it to heal. I also experience pain in shoulder and in my hand/feeling of weakness and sometimes tingling. You have to find out and treat the source of the pain. These injuries are so hard to diagnose because pain radiates everywhere - tough to find out where it's coming from. Have you tried a warm bath? I find a warm bath or shower provides relief. Heat made my symptoms worse when I first experienced pain but now they improve them. Mine started almost a year ago and at one stage went away - flared it up again playing sport and has been lingering for 4 months.
I suggest making an appointment with a neuroligist first to rule out any nerve damage then see an osteopath. Good luck hopefully your symptoms improve quick!
How about now?
Pinched nerve in my neck ,yes, called my brain.
I’ve been having numbness for a few weeks in my shoulder down to my fingertips. Also gives me pins and needles in my check and pain in my eye. Also some brain fog. Is all this pinched nerve related?
God bless u all 🙏👑❤️
Ok so what’s it mean if they all hurt 😭
I really miss Prevac cine Bob, prayers for healing 🙏
what nerve would it be if I tripped and caught myself, felt tingling from my top back down my arms to my fingers, and now only my middle fingers and my elbows feel like a prickly feeling especially when I touch or move them??
My pain started in my left shoulder blade 6 months ago but didn’t get really bad for 3 months. Now it switches spot from shoulder blades to lower back and the neck which O feel lumps. I also have buzzing in my head and weak legs and frozen feet. Doctor hasn’t done much and Chripractor seems to of made it worse. Any ideas? Worst pain of my life. Thanks for any feedback.
How are you now as this sounds herniated disc…I had surgery C6-7 and chiropractor definitely made it sparse. Doctor said it was tension pain ☹️
I though bob got a stab in the back 😂
I can’t live like this. I started with otc drugs like aleve and Dr prescribed muscle relaxant. No help. Next oral steroid. No help. Now going back as I type this. It’s apparently pinched nerve in neck causing this down my shoulder, into forearm and even little tingling in hand. Please please pleSe make this stop. It’s debilitating. I can’t do anything. I’m an active guy. Gym. Golf. Work outside. Etc. I am in tears.
I feel.it man it sucks....I'm on the floor . right now and all.i want to do is work actively like I was until amazon dsp broke me but won't help.....MRI seems to be next on both our lists.....Thai massage made it so much worse tho ...
How are you feeling now. Are you getting better. My husband has pain, just the same thing
Median nerve for me this episode.
When I tilt my Head up I have burning ache from Neck to Bicep/outside of Arm, to Forearm then To Wrist! Please Advise!😖😖😪
Funny not so funny. I was doing dishes and my middle finger pulled to the left on my left hand. I was surprised and a little scared. Felt like someone else doing it. Weird! So I stopped what I was doing dishes and after a minute it stopped. Then I went back to dishes and it started up again! Lol I was kinda in unbelief! Thought it was like magnetism from the water in the sink smh
Sounds like a little bit of a muscle spasm. Water and you can try finger exercises. Repetition could've caused that to act up in that given time!
No it's in my damn abdominal why nobody talks about that
👍🥰
Please change your intro I’m sorry but it’s terrible lol
