How long will an athlete with a pinched nerve be out of the game?
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.
Should you put heat or ice on a pinched nerve?
Heat, anti-inflammatories, and a muscle relaxer if you've got it. Like pinched nerves in the back (from disk herniations), a lot of the real pain from pinched neck nerves (which can indicate a disk problem in the cervical spine as well) comes from the muscles spasms caused by the nerve being compressed. Heat helps loosen the muscles, and allows for increased blood flow to the area to heal. If you do use cold (it does help some people, but it can irritate already sensitive nerves) use it for short periods, then add heat. What it boils down to is that the combination reduces the inflammation, relaxes the muscle spasms, and increases blood flow to promote faster healing.

How long does it take for a kittens nose to heal after bumping into metal?
If a kitten has bumped its nose on metal, the healing process can vary depending on the severity of the injury.

However, if there is significant swelling, bleeding, or signs of a more serious injury, it's best to consult a veterinarian for proper evaluation and treatment.
Could someone be paralyzed by being stabbed?
Yes. Both sensation and motion are controlled by nerves. If the nerves used to control sensation/motion are severed, the part of the body that was controlled by those nerves will no longer sense/move. Damaging the nerve can also lead to this, but is more likely to heal. In the peripheral nervous system, nerves can grow back, but they have to be redeveloped and this is not always possible (you weren't born with the motor control to write and may never get it back in a hand with damaged nerves). Your brain is made up of nerves, which then project down your spine, and from your spine branch out into the rest of your body. When a nerve is severed, the portion that is no longer connected to the spine/brain no longer works - resulting in paralysis. This means that a body part would only be paralyzed distal (down/out, further from the center) to the stab wound. If a nerve is simply damaged, then the problem lay in its ability to pass on a message.
