Cervical Radiculopathy Symptoms, Nerve Chart, Nerve Distribution | Dr. Walter Salubro

[@Mod-Squad]

THANK YOU Dr. Salubrio! I experienced severe pain in Aug/Sept for 4 weeks and saw 3 Dr's. I went to a walk-in clinic, an ER and my PCP. They all kind of knew it was a nerve but I also heard something about nerves coming from my elbow. Not one of them explained it like this and I never heard C6/C7 or that a chiropractor could help me. I suffered for weeks. When it came back again almost 2 weeks ago, I went straight online and called my chiropractor. Unfortunately I'm a little far from Vaughn or I'd be booking my appointments with you! We do head that way for Bass Pro Shop a couple times a year though bc that's the closest one! Thank you for your informative videos. Subscribed!

I have tingling in my face,head,extremities as well as the pain in my neck and down arm…have had heart checked and stress test done and all clear but I do have back and neck issues with sacrum,spinal stenosis,subluxation in the middle of spine as well as occipital neuralgia and I am pretty sure 3 chiro’s I have seen in the last year has made it worse as one was a Gonstead chiro and things started to go downhill after that.My job for the past year also has me sitting for 5 hours per day but I get up as often as I can to stretch and move .I have also been told menopause causes parasthesia. I am going to request an mri this week.

Hello. What is C6/C7 radiculopathies with active denervation potentials means? Or active denervation potentials over bilateral C6/C7-supplied muscles. Thank you

Does the C5 C6 Cervical Radiculopathy cause symptoms like numbness in the foot and else sometimes oneside of the head especially Upper part of the head above the ear.

[@DrWalterSalubro]

Cervical radiculopathy, by definition, is a condition that is characterized by symptoms in the shoulder, arm, foream, hand, and/or fingers. Not head, not foot.

Hello, can cervical myolopathy cause the 3rd & 4th toes in one leg to feel numb and calf diameter smaller than other leg? Thank you and wishing you blessed Christmas.

I had whiplash in 1990. 11/2001 - both pinky fingers started going into spasms. By Jan 2002 I was getting shocks in my wrists with any kind of resistance. Mostly from bending them. W/Comp said it was carpel tunnel and refused to address my neck. I had the surgery and it just caused more weakness. They refused to address my neck. I have had 5 nerve conduction tests and now 6 MRI's. It has always shown an issue with C-6 C-7 but they said it wasn't enough to cause the shocks. I heard if the atlas is off I could get shocks. I have been refused disability even though I have many restrictions. Judge said no employer would hire me due to extra needed resting breaks and no jobs were even available for me. Denied for the last almost 22 years. Had to quit bowling which was the worse for me. I worked for 30 years and denied because there is no name for my issue.

Hello Sai, I can not give you recommendations here because I did not examine you. I hope you can understand this.

[@MrLetsplayagame]

Hello doc. Recently had an MRI with the following diagnostic: spondylosis, ostephytes, multiple protrusions (C4-C5, C5-C6, C-C7) with pinched nerves C4-C5, C6-C7), degenerative modifications of zygapophyseal C4-C5. I suffer from chronic right upper back pain (shoulder, scapula), everything right sided only, sometimes burning going in my chest sometimes from 7 years. Can those symptoms come fron these cervical issues? Thanks and sorry for the long post!

[@DrWalterSalubro]

Hello. Lower cervical facet joints can refer pain to the upper back/scapular area. However, this is not a diagnosis. I did not examine you and can not give you an diagnosis about your symptoms. Do get checked by your doctor.

One moment it’s my right ring/pinky finger now it’s my left arm. My doctor want to give me steroid shots in my neck. And I’m tired of the dizziness.
