What Is Cervical Radiculopathy?

Cervical radiculopathy occurs when a nerve root in your neck becomes compressed or inflamed. This pressure can cause:

  • Sharp or burning pain in the neck, shoulders, arms, or hands
  • Numbness, tingling, or pins-and-needles sensations
  • Weakness or loss of coordination in the arms or fingers
  • Pain that worsens with certain neck movements

Common Causes:

  • Herniated cervical discs
  • Bone spurs or arthritis
  • Cervical spinal stenosis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Repetitive stress, poor posture, or trauma

Diagnosing a Pinched Nerve in the Neck

Your consultation at NYSI Brooklyn begins with a physical and neurological exam. We evaluate your range of motion, reflexes, and strength. If needed, we’ll refer you for imaging studies such as:

  • X-rays to assess spinal alignment
  • MRI to examine soft tissues and nerve roots
  • EMG testing in complex cases

Our team ensures a prompt diagnosis and a treatment plan designed around your unique symptoms and lifestyle.

Non-Surgical Care for Cervical Radiculopathy

Many patients improve with conservative care. At our Brooklyn office, we develop a personalized plan that may include:

  • Physical therapy for neck stability and posture correction
  • Anti-inflammatory medications or short steroid regimens
  • Cervical traction to reduce nerve pressure
  • Epidural steroid injections for longer-lasting relief
  • Ergonomic coaching to support healing at work and home

We aim to help you feel better without surgery—whenever possible.

Surgical Options (When Needed)

If symptoms persist or significantly affect function, surgery may be the right solution. At NYSI Brooklyn, our board-certified spine surgeons are experienced in minimally invasive techniques that relieve nerve pressure while preserving neck movement.

Surgical Procedures We Offer:

  • Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)
  • Cervical foraminotomy

Each surgery is carefully selected to match your goals, anatomy, and activity level.
