People heal at different rates. A pinched nerve is not too bad of an injury. This can usually be taken care of by a chiropractor or a massage therapist. An athlete should only be out of a game for only a few weeks at the most.
Leaving an untreated pinched nerve can lead to worsening pain, weakness, and numbness in the affected area. It may also result in long-term nerve damage and decreased mobility. Seeking timely treatment is important to prevent these risks and consequences.
Yes. Nausea can be caused by entrapment or irritation of the vagus nerve which itself travels a long meandering path from the brain to deep within the gut.
A pinched nerve usually starts with tingling and/or pain, The pain usually radiates; following a long narrow path from one part of the body to another. And, there may be numbness. If you are referring to the 'silent' as meaning that it has no sensation, then, yes. A pinched nerve can be 'silent.' Usually this is noticeable and most people feel a bit uneasy when they loose sensation in a part of their body, so if you suspect that you may have a 'silent' or pinched nerve, or anything unusual, especially if it keeps you awake at night or prevents you from doing normal everyday activities, like getting dressed, eating, and brushing your teeth, then please get checked by your physician or another health professional.
A pinched nerve is a condition that may last several months or longer, and be the cause of extreme discomfort. If this condition persists and does not go away on its own, pain relievers such as aspirin or ibuprophen may be needed to alleviate the pain, and a trip to the doctor, chiropractor, or neurologist may be required.

Yes, a pinched nerve often results in inflammation. When a nerve is compressed or irritated—by a herniated disc, bone spur, swollen muscle, or other nearby tissue—it can trigger the body’s natural inflammatory response. This inflammation can cause additional swelling around the nerve, worsening the pressure and increasing pain or discomfort. Inflammation around a pinched nerve contributes to many of the classic symptoms: sharp or burning pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the area supplied by the affected nerve. For example, a pinched nerve in the neck might cause pain that radiates down the arm, while one in the lower back could affect the leg (commonly known as sciatica). Reducing inflammation is a key part of treating a pinched nerve. Over-the-counter or prescription anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen or corticosteroids can help relieve symptoms. Physical therapy, rest, ice, and gentle stretching may also reduce swelling and ease nerve pressure. In some cases, chronic inflammation from a long-term pinched nerve (561-836-7248 ) can lead to more lasting nerve damage, so it’s important to address the issue early. If symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen over time, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Sorry it's taken so long to answer your question...!! These symptoms indicate that you have nerve damage. I sincerely hope you are being seen by a Neurologist AND a neurosurgeon!
It depends on what sport the athlete is playing, for normal people it takes about three to six weeks for ribs to heal on average. For an athlete in say football, it will probably be longer, probably about five to eight weeks
That depends on what the athlete is training for.
