What I don't understand is this is caused by weakness in the muscles & it's treated by exercise basically. I was a body builder in my 20s & I am stronger than most. I'm 42 now & while I'm nowhere near as strong as I was 15 years ago, I still try to workout when I can & yes... I have sat in a chair a lot over the past 10 years but there's no way I can be weaker than people who are sitting in a chair for the past 20-30 years & they don't have these problems. What gives? I was diagnosed with Dysautonomia 12 years ago so I'm always stretching or doing traction on my back & sleeping certain ways etc which according to these videos are the exact way I should be to rid myself of cervical radiculopathy but I've actually GOTTEN it while doing these exercises! So I'm confused... If I keep doing what the Drs tell me & the videos say.... How can it get better if it's only gotten worse? My theory is that my Dysautonomia is generating my nerves & rejecting the therapy. It's such a little understood disease. I've spent 12 years educating myself on my disease + a sports medicine/nutrition degree. I remain a medical mystery.

I had a very painful pinched nerve on my left side since I was a teenager, exactly how you described it. Went to doctors, specialists - everything. Nothing worked. When I was in my 20s someone suggested a chiropractor. After two or three treatments, the pain completely disappeared, my arm wasn't number or shaking. It was amazing. After the first treatment, I slept for about 10 hours. The pain never came back but I continued chiropractic for a few months.

I have two degenerative discs in my neck and two bone spurs that have caused me a great deal of pain for over 20 years. One doctor I had insisted the only way I was going to get better was through surgery. Uh no thank you! I had started doing yoga about three years ago for sciatica and in doing that, I have found that over the years, my neck pain has gotten better and rarely do I wake up in agony. Yoga is a daily routine and a lot of the exercises you showed here have been incorporated in the classes I do. You have shown a few I've not done before, however. I'm willing to add them to my routine for extra support. Thank you for this!

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 📚 Cervical radiculopathy, also known as a pinched nerve in the neck, can cause numbness, weakness, and pain in the arms and hands due to issues in the neck area. 01:39 ⚠️ Symptoms of cervical radiculopathy can vary in intensity, and pain or sensory changes might occur in unexpected areas, like the scapular or rhomboid region. 02:49 🩺 Natural history of cervical radiculopathy often leads to improvement regardless of treatment, and abnormalities on imaging aren't necessarily indicative of symptoms. 04:12 🛌 Lifestyle factors such as sleep quality, stress, posture, and physical activity play a role in managing cervical radiculopathy alongside exercises. 07:28 💪 Isometric exercises and resistance training can help restore strength and range of motion, while addressing factors like sleep and stress is important for symptom management.

If your outside shoulder muscle is burning/painful and some tingling numbness in thumb and index + middle finger and pain on rear of shoulder then its most likely your radial nerve. Pain worsens when sitting at a desk or driving. Have experienced this agonising pain for the last 10 days. Went to physio and she tried to massage the radial passage. Try muscle relaxants in evening once home if pain is too intense or anti inflammatory tablets may possibly help even though its a nerve. The pain worsens in the evening due to temperature change etc. Try some heat therapy with a hot bean bag in microwave to elongate the muscles. Going to try some simple radial nerve stretches after this pain subsides to floss the nerve and hopefully be pain free soon to get back to a normal day and sports activity. Hope this helps anyone out there experiencing these symptoms.

I would just share that in my experience, swimming without pushing hard has also helped me alot in keeping active during the process. Also, i have realized that some doctors want to operate straight away, because theres more money in it for them, even though there are many short term and long term issues associated with that.

As a 68 year old I had this associated with c8 nerve root. I had pain in shoulder front and back down arm affecting small and ring finger. Pain in actual neck was just sore when palpated .Took anti inflammatory and cocodamol which had minimal effect on the pain for 10 days . Eventually added in a muscle relaxant which helped. The pain was excruciating hence exercise would be a no no. Discovered nerve gliders for radius medial and ulnar nerves which I find helps. Pain probably about 40% improvement this week thankfully. Not something I would want to suffer from again. Hopefully I will continue to improve as I have not been back to gym since which I miss. Meantime I will try some home exercise this week.

What these videos often don't tell is there is degenerative or hard herniated disc, and non-degenerative or soft herniated disc. The first one is unlikely to get better on itself.

I assume you mean "bulging" disc vs Herniated disc? or the fibrous ring vs nucleus pulposus? . (the hard and soft terms aren't really used in the medical literature) . Many people and actually many medical professionals Used to think the herniated discs with protrusions do not heal at their own but the latest research shows they actually do and interestingly the size of the protrusion is directly proportional to their chances and time-line of recovery. the bigger the protrusion, the higher the chances of its natural recovery (absorption).

Amazing timing, I’m definitely going to be using these exercises as part of my recovery process. My left rhomboid has been underdeveloped my entire life. Just recently my physio did a neck adjustment that immediately descended my scapula, which confirmed to me it wasn’t a genetic issue but simply a nerve being pinched, allowing me to activate the muscle to actually do its job. I’m glad I can finally put a name to what this condition is. I’m looking forward to finally having a symmetrical back after all these years of going to the gym and having to compensate with other muscles to lift weights resulting in an uneven physique. Cheers!

Thanks for this great video. My problem is that my neck has bulging discs, thin discs, degenerated facet joints, pinched nerves, neck cramps, due to being hit by cars twice in the last 11 years while rifding the push bike. You are talking about getting good sleep. I am unable to get good sleep due to the chronic nature of my pain that keeps me mostly awake. It is difficult to get a good sleep. My physio tells me to do some gentle exercises but even the shortest walks, lightest resistance training with very small weights bring on symptoms. My body is inflamed 24/7 even with no activity. The mere fact of placing my head on a pillow causes me a lot of pain. I have tried 10 different types of pillows with the same results. I am 68 and would like to try to do some light resistence training because my muscles are wasting. Should I try free weights, elastic bands or machines at the gym? I wish there was some info on how to exercises safely with a bad cervical radiculopathy. I would like to move forward but every time I do super light phisical activity then there is a period of 2 , 3 weeks that I skip the activities to reduce the symptoms. I feel very frustrated because I used to be a very fit person and just 3 years ago I could bench press 75 kg. Now even 5 kg per arm cause me a lot of symptoms.

This will be a great addition to some of the PT exercises I have been doing. With chronic degenerative cervical arthrosis more persistently pinching the nerve-. Are there activities or exercises that should be limited or managed to avoid triggering cervical pain, such as lifting weights? I am sure ergonomics & static positions while working in hospital based medical ultrasound for many years is a constant trigger or component contributing to discomfort. Activity definitely helps resolve symptoms.

I have actually been diagnosed with c6-c7 cervical radiculopathy, surpraspinatus tendinopathy and bursitis. It’s been a year now that my arm gets numb and I have shoulder blade pain. I started going to physio to help with recovery and they have advised exercises to make the shoulder and shoulder blade area muscle stronger. Do you think that will help? We tried neck stretches but that makes the symptoms straight away worse. The surgeon said, if physio doesn’t help he will try cortisone injection, what’s your thoughts on that ?

Have you found other/any solutions? I have the same as you do, but I did get the injection. The only improvement I’ve seen after the injection is that the numbness is my arm/fingers is less, but the shoulder blade pain and muscle weakness is the same. Right now the shoulder blade pain is dull, chronic and severe. I’m honestly desperate for something to work.

@@jennacollins4018 physio and gym is actually helping me with the shoulder blade pain. I am following a program with my personal trainer to try and build the muscles back up for the shoulder/back area. Exercises are extremely simple, mainly starting with mobility and stretching and then some pull exercises for strength. Hope that helps

@@alexiachr10 Did the exercise program help reduce pain and radiculopathy symptoms? I've had right arm radiculopathy for the past 5-6 weeks. Started physio and chiro at weeks 1-2 but just made the pain and imflamation worse. Also have cervical spondylosis c5 and c6. Had a cervical epidural steroid injection 16 days ago and it did absolutely nothing. Haven't been to the gym in over 5wks as soneone who has trained 4-5 times a week for 15yrs. Think I might just get back into exercising and gauge whether movement improves symptoms or makes them worse

If u have burps, gas & farts increased while the pain.. try also checking with gasteric doctor. Reduce any food or drinks causing this gas. I felt relief 50% and rest do all exercises to get 100%

I have a pinched nerve on/at my C8 causing terrible pain and discomfort in my back and down my right arm making my pinky and ring fingers numb. It’s been two weeks straight with very little improvement. I’ve been doing many of these physio movements to stop the pinch. How much longer can I expect to suffer?
