What happens when you pinch a nerve?
If you pinch the nerve then you will have a reaction worse then what you would feel when you get a regular pinch. The nerve is the symptom that causes the pain when you get pinched , so if you get pinched on your nerve exactly then you would have very painful reaction that could maybe cause the place that got pinched to be numb for a few weeks. But to actually pinch the nerve you would have to open the last layer of skin. It would be nearly impossible to pinch the nerve so in that case pinching the nerve would hurt if you had surgery that cut through all of the layers of skin, and a doctor accidentally pinched it, but you can't pinch the nerve without all of the layers of skin open.

Sometimes a higher cervical pinched nerve can cause headaches also.

How does brachial nerve damage cause very itchy skin on the arms and neck?
Brachial nerve damage can disrupt normal sensory signaling, leading to altered sensations in the skin, including itchiness.

Additionally, inflammation or irritation in the surrounding tissues can further exacerbate this itching sensation. This phenomenon is often referred to as neuropathic itch, where the underlying nerve issues manifest as discomfort or itchiness in the affected areas.
