I have a bulging disc in C-5/C6 and the MRI showed no nerve compression of any sort. However, the neck is supposed to be curved and mine is abnormally straight. I still have full range of motion and flexibility, but not in my right shoulder right now…I was in a car accident about 2 months ago. For the past two weeks I have not done anything to bring on this intense shoulder pain that radiates down to my elbow and sometimes into my hand. I was prescribed muscle relaxers and NSAID’s but they do not help at all! I see a chiropractor, physical therapist, massage therapist and my MD on a weekly basis.I feel like the pain has gotten significantly worse over the past two weeks and I am getting a lot more headaches as well. Can a rupture be causing this pain? How can I tell if it ruptured? Is there anything else I can do to alleviate my pain?







He was injured at the age of 15, and he is now 28. He leans on that cane a lot and thus has problems with his right shoulder, elbow, and wrist. We believe that if he was in the right physical therapy program, he could benefit. If there is anyone out there who has had a similar experience or knows something about this, please answer and give me some information. Thanks!!!!!




Bulging Disc in neck– anyone else had that?




I went to the doc today since my left shoulder and neck have been just killing me. I have tingles all the way down my arm, through the elbow and to the tips of my fingers.
My doc gave me a muscle relaxer and said its its not better in 2 weeks, I need an MRI for a possible bulging disc.
Anyone else been through this too or any thoughts?
What therapy was used to relieve it for you?
I have been seeing my chiropractor every other day for the past 2 weeks.
He thinks there is another problem too– like something in my lung or a bulging disc too. That’s why I went to my GP today.







I have a bulging C5/6 disc was wondering what the chances are of having more lower down. My MRI and X-ray were of the cervical region only.
I have a lot of pain down my right arm wrist and elbow, left sometimes but right moreso, also alot of numbness into my fingers. Headaches, .
Sometimes i get a shooting pain down my left leg, this only happens occassionally.




Pinched Nerve?




I think I have a pinched nerve. My neck is real stiff this morning and I barely got any sleep last night because I had a nagging pain from my elbow down to my hand/wrist. So, I assume it’s a pinched nerve. Do I wait it out, or call the doc for a pain killer?? What’s the remedy??







The front chest muscle often goes in to spasms. The pain is getting worse and unbearable. The pain has traveled from back of muscle just above elbow down to top of forearmrm midway. There is something that feels like a wire(tendon ?) from elbow to wrist that is tight on the underside of the forearm. There is also a muscle in the back that is really notted up and runs from the spine about mid back up and under the shoulder blade.




What should I do about a pinched nerve in my elbow?




My pinky on my left hand has been numb for about a week and when I rub a spot on my elbow it tingles, so I’m guessing it’s a pinched nerve.

I can’t afford a doctors visit though or I would go.




Birth injury!!!!?




I had a natural birth and shoulder dystocia occured….my baby got stuck and her shoulder got stretched coming out of me….she now has erbs palsy….i go to therapy 2 times a week we do range of motions with her everyday….she was born only moving her fingers now she trys to lift her arm but still cant all the way up or bend her elbow…they said hopefully in 6 weeks she will start…..

i was wondering is there anyway i can maybe sue?
What can i do now? any advice?







I fell down the steps at a Septa station when the steps were slippery. I fractured my elbow and have a right leg contusion. My arm will never be straight again so I was told due to this.
