What is the best solution for the compression of the nerve between the cervical C5 and C6?
I just went threw the same thing c5 c6 had a pinch nerve and they did therapy,If that doesn't work and the pain is still there and trust me you will know. skip another mri have a Dr do a milogram and catscan this shows all around the disk. Worked for me just had a fushion on c5 c6. Hope this helps.
Go to a CHIROPRACTERThis should be your first move, hands down.

Can cervical nerve compression cause trigeminal neuralgia?
Cervical nerve compression typically does not directly cause trigeminal neuralgia, which is primarily associated with issues affecting the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V). However, cervical spine problems can lead to referred pain or other neurological symptoms that may mimic or coexist with trigeminal neuralgia. It’s important to evaluate each case individually, as overlapping conditions can occur. Proper diagnosis by a healthcare professional is essential for effective treatment.
What is Jacksons Compression test?
Jackson's Compression Test is a clinical assessment used to evaluate for cervical radiculopathy or nerve root compression. During the test, the patient is asked to flex their neck forward while the clinician applies downward pressure on the head. If the patient experiences pain radiating into the arms, it suggests the presence of nerve root irritation or compression in the cervical spine. This test is commonly used as part of a comprehensive neurological examination.
Do all cervical discectomies require a fusion as well?
Cervical discectomies are done for cervical spine arthritis called as spondylosis. They are also done for compression of the spinal cord or a nerve root. If the discectomy is done from the front of the cervical spine, fusion is generally done. if the patient is young and disease is at single level, cervical disc replacement can also be done to avoid fusion and preserve motion, but studies say the outcomes are the same with both the procedures. If the nerve root compression is the only problem then the nerve root decompression can also be done by what is called as cervical formainotomy where the spine is approached from the back. If this procedure is done fusion is not necessary.
The phrenic nerve is a member of which nerve plexus?
Cervical plexus....
What is cervical spondylosis?
Cervical spondylosis refers to spondylosis of the cervical vertebrae (Bones of the spine in the region of the neck). Spondylosis refers to changes occurring in the bones ultimately resulting in compression of the nerve roots passing through these regions. The result of the nerve compression is determined by the specific nerve that is compressed. Common features include sharp pain radiating down the region of the upper limb supplied by the specific nerve root affected. Cervical spondylosis is common in older population. It is often due to osteoarthritis resulting in osteophyte formation (abnormal new bone growth) and these osteophytes result in the nerve compression.
What primary nerve that controls breathing is found in which nerve plexus?
The nerve that control the larynx during breathing is the Vagus Nerve.
What can cause the symptoms of pain in left hand and neck?
Compression of the left cervical nerve roots,supplying left hand. could be due to, cervical PID, LYSTHESIS, CANAL STENOSIS...CERVICAL SPONDYLOSIS.........etc. also due to -improper posture, improper ergonomics.
Nerve pain in muscle between the bicep and tricep?
It could be cervical radiculopathy or impingement.
Spinal nerve C8 exit between two vertebrae C7 - C8?
Yes, the spinal nerve C8 exits between the C7 and C8 vertebrae. In the cervical region, there are eight cervical spinal nerves (C1 to C8), but only seven cervical vertebrae. Therefore, the C8 nerve root exits below the C7 vertebra and above the C8 vertebra, which is why it is uniquely positioned.
How does compression of the sciatic nerve between the vertebrae lead to symptoms of sciatica?
Compression of the sciatic nerve between the vertebrae can lead to symptoms of sciatica because it causes irritation and inflammation of the nerve, resulting in pain, numbness, and tingling sensations that radiate down the leg.
Do you still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury?
Yes, you may still have a stretch reflex with a cervical nerve injury.
Whatbodyparts are affected by the nerves in the cervical spine?
The nerves in the cervical spine primarily affect the arms, hands, neck, and upper back. Nerve compression or injury in this region can lead to pain, numbness, weakness, or tingling in these areas.
