shoulder feels like ive got torn rotator cuff.. tennis elbow comes on.. get cramps in my left hand and pins and needles in my fingers.. collar bone area really hurts.. my X-rays show trouble at c5

[@ShaneSchimpf]

From the armpit through the elbow but not always into the fingers. My wrists however are always tight and pop when I'm stretching them. Does that suggest more than just an ulnar nerve problem in your opinion?

[@johnguest4525]

Had an issue with my left ulna nerve for several years, numbness in the bottom edge of forearm and hand, numbness in pinky and strangely just half of the ring finger on the pinky side. The other side of the finger is fine. Will give the exercise a go. Many thanks for the video, keep up the good work.

Good for you

I am crying trying to help myself , causing anxiousness 😮

[@simonpark843]

Thank you so much! I had carpal tunnel surgery in 2014 (on both hands) and I've experienced issues with the nerves in my left hand for years. These exercises have helped.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing

[@nobody3692]

So did the surgery help with the numbness? I've been thinking about surgery, was told i should over a decade ago . But haven't had many more issues till last few weeks. 1st exercise made fingers tingle after 5. .

[@simonpark843]

@@nobody3692 - The surgery helped with the numbness, yes. The issue was that I waited 22 years to get the surgery and as a result my left hand sustained some nerve damage. The right hand was sore for a while but is now perfectly ok. My issues with my left hand are because of the nerve damage, but the surgery definitely gave me back most of the sensation in the left hand as well.

[@seemasachdeva921]

Good morning Sir. Thanks for this video. I've been suffering from tingling sensation from past one month. Accidentally caught this video and it has helped me a lot. Thank you.

[@SimonNdungu-es7yt]

Thank you so much! The exercises are working, have been suffering for more than 8 weeks but now I feel much better..

[@BodyFixExercises]

👍👍👍

[@ShaneSchimpf]

You're reading my mind again, Doc. I'm beyond tired of the ulnar nerve pain in my right arm. I followed along with you as you did all 3. Definitely felt tightness and possibly a bit of release. I'll add these to my daily stretch routine. Any relief at this point would be an improvement. I'll be checking out your program, too. Might be just what im needing. Thank you again for another helpful video.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Cheers Shane! Two major causes of Ulnar nerve pain are (i)leaning on your elbow (on a desk or something right near where the nerve passes over the funny bone), or (ii)bending your elbow excessively (particularly in bed). When you bend your elbow a lot (and lie on it that way) it stretches the nerve over the funny bone, irritating it. So watch out for those two things!

[@ShaneSchimpf]

@BodyFixExercises guilty as charged. As a side sleeper, I try to keep my arms extended in front of me throughout the night. And the leaning on my elbows, I do my best to avoid that for the reasons you mentioned. Any pressure causes zingers. I find myself snapping my arm often hoping itll subside. There's nothing like nerve pain.

[@crystalq6158]

Just did this. Oh my never knew you could feel those nerves when stretching like this. I have a lot of pain down my armes. Right more so then left. Thank you! Will add these stretching techniques to my daily routine.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Great job!

[@SimonNdungu-es7yt]

Thanks for sharing the video. Have suffered for the last two months with forearm pain. The joint between my right bicep has caused me so much pain, spreading the pain to the entire arm….

[@k.jespersen6145]

!!! I didn't know that this could be "released!" 2020 was particularly memorable not just for the world health problems, but because of a pinched ulnar nerve while having to isolate. Saving this video for next time that nerve decides to cause trouble.

[@BodyFixExercises]

👍 hope you never need it!

[@maureenallain]

I will try these exercises since I've had pins and needles in my forearm for a couple of months now. Very easily explained. Thank you.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Best of luck!

[@KayraJordyn]

Thank you. For me it must be the Ulnar nerve. 20 years and hundreds of doctors, with so much going on, this takes a back seat while it interrupts my sleep, drawing, writing, playing with kids. This will be a very helpful technique. Thank you. I think I have many pinched nerves with my subluxing tendons. This far in to chronic pain and illness and I’m finally doing all I can to fight back that doesn’t involve begging a doctor to care more, push harder, keep searching for answers. I’m the one who has to live with it, and with resources I am capable of managing more symptoms than I’ve ever realized. Brought my level 10 migraines down from a 10 to a 5 about half of the time from stretching. Problem being I hurt myself too easily then have to pull back and be super careful and build my way up again. Still, positive results, it’s empowering. I’m hypermobile and I think hypermobile EDS but that’ll take a second opinion to know, my rheumatologist doesn’t want to diagnose me with that. Said he doesn’t want me to live up to a diagnosis by taking it on, some are more damaging than helpful and I’m thinking, dude-I’ve been searching for YEARS for answers. It’s SO FRUSTRATING. He said you treat hypermobility the same. Now I’ve just had a (gross-out-warning in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and:) rectal prolapse-I’m 37. Anyway this is going in my routine, along with my new side planks for flank pain. Especially helpful because while those help the flank pain, they aren’t good for my arm numbness. I can do these after. Appreciate the help, thank you! God is good!

[@Whistlewalk]

Thank you!! I have cronic nerve owies in my right arm & the loss of feeling in my rightr hand from knitting. I'm right handed and that's the hand I 'throw' the yarn with. My hands don't just seriously hurt some mornings but I can really feal where the nerves go through my elbow and down from my cranium in my neck "Good morning!!" And,it impacts my quality of sleep. I'm figuring this is a pinched nerve in my neck to some degree, but nothing I've been able to do has relieved the pain to a reasonable degree. These exercises look as though they might just work and I am excited to try them out for a few weeks. Will let you know how that goes.

thank you so much. I kept waking up last night with both my hands going numb. I'm a cross stitcher and I also sleep with my arms bent. Then this morning while I was cross stitching my right hand kept going number. After a few of the exercises and one from another video it has relieved that issue! I find it fascinating and amazing that some simple exercises helped. Now I don't have to worry about going to a doc.

[@nicoledickerson9516]

Holy Heck!!!! THESE EXERCISES REALLY WORK!!! Thank you so much. I thought I injured my rotator cuff at first then after watching some videos and googling my pain and numbness in my arm I discovered it was a pinched nerve. I searched and came across your video , and have done your exercises for two nights and my pain is almost all gone ( first night I’ve had no pain while sleeping) . Ive had the pain and numbness consistently for 1 1/2 months. It was awful. I’m so thankful for your video. I also bought a posture corrector to wear at work because I think this was the cause of it. Thank you so much. I can’t go to the doctor so I would’ve just lived in pain.

[@BodyFixExercises]

great to hear!

[@KamiHere]

Thank you so much! Ive been feeling pain from my elbow to my thumb for years, and exams dont show anything wrong with nerves or tendons. I'm hopeful your content may help me dealing with these pains

[@sagebell7906]

I’m at Type 1 diabetic. Part of my pointer finger went numb after I put my Dexcom on the inside of my bicept and hit a nerve that shot down my arm (ouch). It wasn’t getting better after about a month and I take care of myself blood sugar, diet, and exercise wise. I was like they are going to have to cut my finger off. I heard about that being a problem if you don’t take care of yourself. I started looking at videos to help with this. Your video has helped relieve this within the first 5 minutes. Thank you very much!

[@iloveitUbet]

Thank you for sharing this. Im already feeling some relief after doing this for the median nerve, however it seems that one or another of these nerves is constantly getting stuck. I do have cervical neck compression along with bone spurs I’ve been told I have radiculopathy. I do feel like I’ve injured my shoulder and scapular shoulder blade on left arm. P.S. (edit) I had an mri & I’ve just recently went to PT for nearly 3 months , then two injections c-6 c-7

[@BodyFixExercises]

Just stick to the exercises that feel comfortable. Sometimes the nerves are so stuck that they can't be released with this technique and trying to do can irritate them, but if you stick to the comfortable exercises it can really help.

[@iloveitUbet]

@@BodyFixExercises I definitely will, thank you again so much, I appreciate you taking the time to respond ❤️

[@crystalq6158]

I'm with you. About 2 years ago my right shoulder started to hurt. More so in the front facing side of shoulder. Never recall hurting it. As time went by and a CT scan. It wasn't my shoulder at all but my neck. I would have bet money it was my shoulder. Now that time has passed the nerves that he explains in video is exactly what is giving me trouble. Lots of PT (pool) therapy is the only thing that helps. Good luck and wishing you a pain free day.

I tried this since I have Carpel Tunnel and after 7-8 times I stopped to feel how it was. Yeah not doing that again. It aggravated it enough to cause slight discomfort. Well it was worth a try! Have to get the surgery after all...

[@BodyFixExercises]

Yes, this is important! Sliding nerve along its path down the arm can release it and give amazing relief. But if it's just too compressed to release, you can stretch the nerve and irritate it. That's why I keep repeating "IF it's comfortable..." Don't do it if it feels uncomfortable folks.

[@thewiseowl8804]

[@ToolNut2024]

Been working hacking concrete with hammer drill for hours, the vibration has caused some issues with my nerves. I often wake up at night in discomfort espcially the front of the left arm, the back of my left arm and shoulder . I get it most nights and most mornings by now...every morning I wake up and for the first few hours I have numbness and tingling throughout the left arm and fingers, its a weird thing to have happen because no one talks about it. I've had instant relief using these exercises and I will continue to use these exercise if I get the same issues!

[@BodyFixExercises]

Be very careful with jackhammers and tools with a lot of vibration. It can really damage the nerves. Do everything you can to protect yourself from that type of vibration. Gloves, padding, short session times. I'm glad the exercises helped

I believe to have the Ulnar Nerve one because it’s affecting both of my ring and pinky fingers on both arms. My left hand has more difficulty trying to do a full grip (numbness feeling) while the right hand isn’t as bad. I don’t know how to accurately describe the pain…It feels like bruising without the actual visuals of a bruising

If the tenderness is near the inner elbow it is likely Cubital Tunnel Syndrome

What to do if nerve is badly trapped. Can’t do these My elbows and hands are horrible pain numb elbows popping. Any natural ways to heal?

[@beatz3279]

These are hard irriate it more but i am awaiting TOS surgery

[@BodyFixExercises]

Yes, and this is a point to note. These exercises are designed to free a nerve from adhesions along it's path down the arm, but sometimes the points where the nerve are compressed are just too hard and firm to release with exercises. So if the exercises cause any irritation, stop and see your doctor
