WHAT IS A PINCHED NERVE ?

People hear the term “pinched nerve”, as in “Pinched Nerve in the neck”, but often, don’t know what it really means. Most nerves don’t actually get “pinched”, as you would do with your thumb and forefinger
on a garden hose to increase pressure by direct physical contact with the house. Most nerves that are called “pinched nerves” are getting abnormal or excessive amounts of pressure, usually partial pressures. There is a gradient in the opening for the nerve called a “pressure gradient”, and when some object such as disc material, swollen tissues, etc., start to taking up more space in the hole between the bones, the “intervertebral foramen”, there can be a relative pressure increase. This can also happen if a disc starts to taking up space in the spinal canal. This situation, in which an opening through which a nerve courses, has a decrease in its size or patency, it is called “stenosis”.
Increased pressure on the nerve can cause it to function incorrectly, and depending on whether it is a motor nerve, sensory nerve, or mixed, once there is additional pressure, one can have negative outcomes. A motor nerve that has too much pressure on it can result in decreased strength of an extremity for example, or, if there is sensory function to the nerve, one might feel numbness, or a decreased ability to feel certain stimuli.

Can a pinched nerve in the hip also cause dull pain and numbness in the arms?

I have been having some pain in my hip which my doctor believes is a Pinched Nerve.I have been set up for some testing but in the mean time I have started having dull aching pain with some numbness in both of my arms. Can this be related?

Shannon, the wiring just doesn’t run that way. Try these movements to see if they don’t stop the problem in both areas. Sit in a kitchen chair or other non soft chair. Raise the left arm up as high as it will go and note the height. Return the arm to the side and now do the right arm. There will be a difference in height between the two so start off with the arm that went the highest. Raise that arm up as high as you can for 30 seconds and then rest it for 15 seconds. Repeat this cycle twice more and then do the opposite arm exactly the same way 3 times. Turn the head to the left as far as it can go without pain and then to the right as far as it can go without pain. One direction will go further so start in that direction. Turn the head in that direction as far as you can without pain for 30 seconds and then rest for 15. Repeat this twice more and then do the opposite direction exactly the same way for 3 times. Get up and move around. There should be less pain and more mobility in the arm and back. Return to the chair and keep the hips and feet planted as you turn the body as far as you can to the left without pain and then to the right. One direction is going to turn further so start with that direction. Turn the body in that direction as far as you can without pain for 30 seconds. Repeat this twice more and then do the opposite direction exactly the same way 3 times. Lastly, bring the Left knee up as close to the Right shoulder as possible without getting any pain and then do the Right knee up as close to the Left shoulder as possible. One combination will be closer so start there. Bring that knee up as close to the opposite shoulder as possible without pain for 30 seconds and then rest for 15. Repeat this twice more and then do the opposite combination exactly the same way 3 times. Get up and move around. There should be a decrease in pain levels and there should be more mobility present in your body. Do this routine at least twice a day.

PINCHED NERVE SPINE

Nerves in general, especially nerve roots, are not getting actually “pinched” as in getting a kink in it, but instead, most of the situations people are describing as a Pinched Nerve, is actually a situation in which there is a pressure increase (or a partial pressure increase) on the nerve. From experiments in nerve physiology, we know that nerves do not respond well to increase pressure on them, and indeed, even a relatively small increase in pressure can have dramatic effects and in causing nerve pathology.

In the area where the nerve exits the spinal cord, and moves outward to supply the body, any decrease in the patency, or opening size of the “hole between the spinal bones” or “intervertebral foramen” can have a disastrous effect on nerve function. A decrease in the size of the opening of the intervertebral foramen is called “foraminal stenosis” and a decrease in the size of the canal which transmits the spinal cord, is called spinal canal stenosis.

Now, there is not a pill for this ill. In other words, one can take pain killers and muscle relaxants until they are coming out of your ears, and if one still have improper alignment, or lack of movement of a spinal segment, in combination with improper alignment, then drugs won’t fix it. Much like a shoulder which has become dislocated, there needs to be a physical intervention to bring back proper alignment and proper function. In the case of a subluxed vertebral complex, an adjustment or spinal manipulation is the quickest way to address the problem.
