Had a pinched nerve in their back? It almost like a crick in you're neck but the pain runs down your arm. Fingertips numb, it sucks. Who do you go to see? Your General Doctor, a Chiropractor or who? I'm afraid the crappie at Okatibbee are gonna think I don't like them anymore.
Chiropractor. Good luck.
Ice when it first happens and moist heat the day or days after...

x2 chiropractor. I see one on a regular basis.
x3 on the chiropractor. I have a pinched nerve in my spine, been going to the chiropractor for the past 3 weeks or so, its better but a slow process. Just "tweaked" it again yesterday picking up grandson to put him in the car seat, so..... Don't have any numbness in my fingers, etc., just some sharp stinging sensations in my upper back/lower neck, feels like a bee keeps stinging me on a regular basis.

try chiropractor, but if it dont get better quick see a doctor, prolly bulging disk pushin on nerve, prolly in your neck. you could start losing strength in that arm. chiro worked on me for several months, when pain went down my arm and thumb went numb too late, had to have surgery. orthopeitic surgeon when and if time comes, find one that specializes in neck and back

I ended up jumpin off my mom and dads 2' porch and it popped my back like it had never been popped. The next day I was fine and haven't had any back problems since.
Do plenty of stretches with your arms above your head and take it easy.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'm going to a chiropractor this afternoon. If that sucker paralyses me, I'll put all my fishing gear up for auction.
Being parlysed wont stop ya from feshing.. If you havent ever to been to one dont let all that popping and cracking scare ya too much.Quote:

PS if you let it go too long it can cause permanent damage to the nerves, good luck.
A good chiropractor can give you relief, but it's not a one visit deal. You gotta be committed to going. Good luck, I've been down that road. Whole left arm would go completely numb and hurt like hell at the same time. I was getting less than 4 hours sleep a night cause I couldn't find a position that didn't hurt. The chiropractor's adjustments would only give me some relief for 2-3 days at most. Mine was a blown disc at C5-C6. Had it fused in 2006 and I've done pretty well ever since.
Well I just got back from the chiropractor and I have two bulging disks. He put me on a neck stretcher, I'm now 6 ft 6 inches tall by the way. Lol
How do ya feel?? Hope you are better.
Were is he at Kdavid needs to go see himQuote:

I feel the same as I did this morning. You could tell he didn't care for regular doctors, he said they'll give you a pill for anything. Regular docs think chiropractors are quacks.
You'll be the right weight if you can stretch to 10'. BWAHAHAHAHAQuote:
