Cervical nerve pinch

The cervical spine is made up of seven bony segments, each separated by gel-like spinal discs. These discs act as cushions, absorbing shock and allowing smooth, flexible neck movement.

A pinched nerve occurs when a disc herniates, causing the inner material to bulge out and press against a spinal nerve. This can result from sudden trauma like whiplash or gradual wear from cervical degenerative disc disease. The compression often affects one side, leading to pain, tingling, or weakness.
