Cervical disc herniation is a common cause of neck, upper body & arm pain. Pain may feel dull or sharp in the neck, upper chest or felt between the shoulder blades. Pain may be felt radiating down the arm. Numbness/tingling are typical & sometimes include muscle spasms. Alternately, many experience weakness.
Importantly, a pinched nerve due to disc herniation can become serious, causing chronic pain, or even lead to permanent nerve damage. Fluid & swelling can do irreversible damage to the nerves, so seek help if your symptoms worsen or don’t improve after several days.
Family doctors typically attempt to treat symptoms with first line Rx drugs. If ineffective, treatment is elevated to the use of stronger steroidal &/or opioid drugs. Unfortunately, when there is no success, their next step is usually an orthopedic surgeon referral.
