It does on me in my situation. I have a C6-7 and C3-4 disk bulges pressing nerves and I have blurred vision(Slight), headaches, left under arm pain and entire right arm, specifically the forearm. Hope this helps. Everyone responds a LITTLE differently, but generally the symptoms are the same. I have only just described parts of my experience.
A herniated disc in the neck, also known as cervical disc herniation, typically results in a bulging or protruding disc that can press on nearby nerves or the spinal cord. This condition may cause symptoms such as neck pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or hands. On imaging studies like MRI, it appears as a displaced or deformed disc in the cervical spine region, often with accompanying inflammation or nerve compression. The affected area may show signs of degeneration or damage to the disc structure.
No. That is just not possible.
No, a herniated disc does not cause blood in the stool. See your health care provider, as blood in the stool always deserves a visit.
it could be a pinched nerve in your cervical spine(neck}. Due to a bulging or herniated disc.
Yes, a herniated cervical disc can potentially cause dystonia, although it is not a common outcome. The herniation may compress nearby nerves or the spinal cord, leading to abnormal muscle contractions and movement disorders, including dystonia. This occurs due to disrupted signaling within the nervous system. However, dystonia has various causes, so a thorough medical evaluation is necessary to determine the exact relationship.
Not really. Everyone is different and responds different to both consertative and aggressive treatment.
Although a cervical herniated disc may originate from some sort of trauma or injury to the cervical spine, the symptoms start spontaneously. It usually develops in the 30-50 year old age group.
yes
Some potential causes of cervical pain include whiplash, arthritis, muscle strain, and a herniated disc. If you experience prolonged cervical pain it is recommended that you contact a medical professional.
Arm pain is the most common symptom of a cervical herniated disc along with numbness and tingling along the arm to the fingertips. It is most common in the 30 - 50 year old age group and can start quite spontaneously after a trauma or injury to the cervical spine.
A herniated disc is also referred to as a slipped, rupture, bulging, or protruding disc.
A herniated C5-C6 disc primarily affects the cervical spine and may compress surrounding spinal nerves, but it is unlikely to directly damage the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve originates in the brainstem and travels through the neck, but it is not located in the cervical spine where the C5-C6 disc is situated. However, severe cervical spine issues can potentially lead to broader neurological complications, but direct damage to the vagus nerve from a C5-C6 herniation is not typical.
