What is the best solution for the compression of the nerve between the cervical C5 and C6?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

I depends of the degree of compression of the spinal nerve. If it appears there is possible permanent loss of use of the muscles affected, then surgery is strongly recommended... Sometimes --especially in younger folks-- physical therapy and medications can do the trick...

Answer 3

nerves exit from your spinal cord to the rest of your body through spaces between the vertebrae. (vertebrae in the neck region are called cervical vertebrae, and are numbered 1 to 7 from top to bottom). The c5/c6 nerve roots are 2 nerves... One at the point where it passes between the 5th and 6th cervical vertebrae, and the other at the point where it passes between the 6th and 7th vertebrae that goes on to innervate your arm allowing you to feel sensation generally alon the outside of your upper arm and the thumb side of your forearm and hand)

A cervical nerve root compression means that that particular nerve root has been compressed enough to impair it's function. You might feel sensory impairment (numbness tingling along the outside of your arm and the thumb side of your forearm and hand) or motor loss (weakness with raising your shoulders to your side and flexing your biceps) or both.
