Feeling the Pinch?
Experiencing unexplained pain, numbness, or tingling? These discomforts might be signs of a pinched nerve, a common yet often misunderstood condition. Here’s what you need to know about the pain it causes and how chiropractic care could help.
What is a Pinched Nerve?
A pinched nerve occurs when excessive pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues, such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons. This pressure disrupts the nerve’s function, causing pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness.
Types of Pain Caused by Pinched Nerves
The pain from a pinched nerve can vary significantly. It might feel like a dull ache or a sharp, burning sensation. Sometimes, the pain is localized; other times, it can radiate outward from the affected area, affecting your overall mobility and quality of life.
How Can Dr. Gerry Nastasia Help?
Chiropractic care is uniquely suited to treat pinched nerves because it focuses on spinal alignment and muscle tension relief. By adjusting the spine, we aim to lessen the pressure on the nerve, alleviating pain and restoring normal function. Additionally, care includes advice on posture and ergonomics, which may help prevent future occurrences.
