Radiculopathy, or nerve compression, usually presents with numbness, tingling, and even pain. Patients with radiculopathy of the cervical spine (neck) usually present with neck and shoulder pain, and/or numbness/tingling that can go down the arm.
The symptoms vary depending on which part of the spine is affected. If it is the cervical spine, some symptoms are pain coming and going, neck or shoulder stiffness, and headaches.

Neural foraminal stenosis at the C4, C5, and C6 levels can lead to symptoms such as neck pain, radiating pain in the shoulders and arms, numbness or tingling in the upper extremities, and muscle weakness. Patients may also experience difficulty with fine motor skills or coordination in their hands. In severe cases, there can be signs of cervical radiculopathy, such as reflex changes or muscle atrophy. These symptoms arise due to the compression of spinal nerves as they exit the cervical spine.
Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. It can occur at any level of the spine, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back), and lumbar (lower back) regions. The most common location for scoliosis is the thoracic spine, which is the upper and middle part of the back.
This is scoliosis in the cervical (neck area) and thoracic (upper back) regions of the spine.
Yes! Think of it this way ur spine is the length of the whole upper body...your spine goes from neck to coccyx! Your thigh is only 1/2 or 1/4 of your spine.
Better referred to as a cervical radiculopathy, although some will say it is a trapped nerve or a pinched nerve. There 8 nerves that come out of either side (right or left) of your neck or cervical spine. Because they come out of the cervical spine they are named from top to bottom C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, & C8.
Angiomas in the spine and neck are generally benign and not life-threatening. They can cause symptoms like pain or neurological issues, depending on their location and size. Treatment options vary and usually involve monitoring, medication, or in some cases, surgical removal.

Yes, cervical radiculopathy is a medical term meaning disease of one of the roots of the spinal nerves coming out of the spinal cord at the neck.
The three main divisions of the spinal column are the cervical spine near the neck, the thoracic region of the upper back, and the lumbar spine in the lower back.
You would need to rule out carpal tunnel syndrome, a pinched nerve in the neck giving you radiculopathy symptoms and possibly medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow)
