Homeopathy Medicine for Pinched Nerve

146

When surrounding tissues, such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons, put too much pressure on a nerve, it results in a pinched nerve, which impairs the nerve’s ability to function and causes pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness.

A herniated disk in the lower back, for instance, could press on a nerve root and cause pain to radiate down the back of the leg. Similarly, a pinched nerve in the wrist could cause pain and numbness in the hand and fingers (carpal tunnel syndrome).

The majority of people recover from a pinched nerve within a few days or weeks with rest and other conservative treatments, though surgery may occasionally be required to relieve pain.

SYMPTOMS OF PINCHED NERVE

Some indications and symptoms of a pinched nerve are:

  • Sensation loss or numbness in the nerve’s supply area
  • The pain may be piercing, throbbing, or burning and radiate.
  • Paresthesia, or the feeling of being pinched or needled
  • afflicted area suffers from muscle weakness
  • A hand or foot frequently feels as though it has “fallen asleep”

It’s possible that when we’re sleeping, the effects of a pinched nerve are worse.

CAUSES OF PINCHED NERVE

When surrounding tissues compress (apply too much pressure to) a nerve, it results in a pinched nerve.

When a spinal disc herniates and compresses a nerve root, for example, this tissue may be bone or cartilage; however, in other instances, the condition may be brought on by muscle or tendons.

In the case of carpal tunnel syndrome, a number of tissues, such as swollen tendon sheaths inside the tunnel, enlarged bone that narrows the tunnel, or a thickened and degenerated ligament, may be in charge of compressing the median nerve in the carpal tunnel.

One or more nerves may become compressed by tissue due to a variety of circumstances, such as:

  • Injury
  • Rheumatoid or wrist arthritis
  • Stress from repetitive work
  • Hobbies or sports activities
  • Obesity

Once the pressure is released, nerve function returns to normal if the pressure is applied for a short period of time; however, if the pressure is applied for an extended period of time, chronic pain and permanent nerve damage may result.
