+ 1 HELP!pinched nerve in neck, right side weak as heck? anyone ever have this

ad

so my c7 or c8 nerve is pinched in my neck. I've been to chiropractor 2 X and going again Monday. Only seems to be getting worse. Since I've had this pinch, I notice my right arm, chest pectoral, and right shoulder are waaaay weaker than my left side. I mean while repping out db shoulder press I felt lime I had 100lb db in right hand and a60 lb in my left. Same with bench and curls. Does anyone have any experience with this same issue? Also other than an MRI from doc what can I do about this.

Take some time off! It could be a herniated disc, the MRI is the way to go to see it
Good luck

MRI is your best bet. In the mean time, try to have someone massage the muscles in your neck and upper back a few times a day if possible. Often times, the muscles tense and pull the cervical curve out of alignment. Another thing the try is the styrofoam roller or roll up a towel and place it under your neck when you lay down.

Finally, don't do shrugs or upright rows; sleep with one pillow not two and never hold the phone between your ear and shoulders.

Been dealing with the issues for 20 years.

You need to get a MRI and see a neurologist ASAP brother. Those nerves could be or could become permanently damaged if you do not seek qualified help very soon

First stop going to the f8cking chiropractor! some very few mind you are good and ethical enough to not keep taking your money and making shit worse.

Go get a scan MRI of your spine. I have had a broken neck do not fuck with this area brother. If I could I would walk into your chiropractors office with you and punch him in his liver. He knows better than to keep screwing with this after the reports of it getting worse!
