Neck Pain Evaluation Tips (C7 nerve root)

[@videoluvr4204]

i was injured BY a chiropractor who did two thrust manipulations of my C7/T1 (one in both direction) which left me with pain in that area (pain was not there before) and nerve tingling/pain down my arms into the 4th and 5th fingers

[@dilkiayesha8975]

Can i get any advice for this C7 nurve root compression? My husband suffered with this pain still one year. We are fed up now . Can you give some treatment ideas please 😢

[@williamrobson5345]

Nicely explained...keep up the good work 👍🏼

[@shortattentionspangarage1312]

Why would the imaging be incorporated so much later in the process? I've got a C7 pinch right now based on these same symptoms and I pressed the VA to get me an MRI so my treatment plan is specific to my exact issue, not a speculation of causes.

[@MrMohanadizaq]

Very useful evaluation. Thank you for your effort. Does the C-6 C-7 neck spine disc can cause chest muscles weakness ( right side ) ?

[@kalruggs1719]

I have the same question

[@MrMohanadizaq]

@@kalruggs1719 hi Kai, just finish my C6-C7 surgery three days ago. I can see Chest muscles improved. Definitely when the time goes by I will be able to evaluate properly since recovery period is long ( 3 months ) but am happy that as first indication shown improvement. Wish you all good health

[@kalruggs1719]

@@MrMohanadizaq thank you for your reply I wish you fast recovery.

[@kalruggs1719]

@@MrMohanadizaq I hope I do not require surgery. Did attempt less invasive treatments?

[@artjomtamm7751]

Yes.

[@jasleenkour3132]

Nicely explained. It's really easy to understand when you tell nerves names while performing tests.

[@sebastianfrenzel7405]

My anatomy textbooks are telling me that wrist extensors are supplied by C6-C8. But you are testing wrist extenors for C5....could you tell me the source of that information, please!? I have never heard that so far.

[@OrthoEvalPal]

Hi Sebastian, I just watched the video again to make sure I didn’t miss something. I mentioned wrist extension is C6 in the video

[@sebastianfrenzel7405]

@OrthoEvalPal Sorry, it was my mistake. I also watched your other Videos in the meantime, and it's always C6. Thanks for the reply!

[@gregoryroche4538]

With this presentation roughly how many visits would you consider utilizing before referral out if necessary (not improving with PT)?

[@OrthoEvalPal]

6-9 visits.

[@blakeaustin8835]

The only issue I have with muscle test and retests is the increased facilitation on the second attempt. To confirm I would retest a third time again with the patient back in a neutral cervical position. What you will often find is similar findings of your 2nd test.

[@tphelan86]

I had left side neck pain radiating down to my left hand now I have right side pain causing numbness and tingling in my right hand. Why did my cervical issues switch sides ?

[@OrthoEvalPal]

That is uncommon but can happen.

[@staceypollack808]

Actually it’s not uncommon the veterbrae may be unstable
