What Is Cervical Radiculopathy?

Cervical radiculopathy occurs when a nerve root in the cervical spine becomes compressed or irritated—often by a herniated disc or arthritic changes. This compression can trigger symptoms that affect the shoulder, arm, and hand.

Our specialists in Wayne take the time to understand your symptoms and create a care plan that supports long-term healing.

Common Symptoms Include:

Sharp or burning neck and shoulder pain
Numbness or tingling in the arm or fingers
Weakness in the arms or grip
Worsening pain with neck movement or prolonged sitting

Common Causes:

Herniated cervical disc
Degenerative disc disease
Spinal stenosis
Bone spurs (from arthritis)
Injuries or repetitive strain

How We Diagnose Cervical Nerve Compression

We begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand your symptoms, medical history, and functional limitations. Your provider may recommend:

X-rays to assess bone alignment and disc spacing
MRI scans to visualize nerves and soft tissue
Electromyography (EMG) if needed to evaluate nerve function

Our goal is a clear and accurate diagnosis that informs your personalized treatment plan.

Non-Surgical Treatment Options in Wayne

Most patients with cervical radiculopathy respond well to conservative care. At NYSI Wayne, we focus on minimally invasive, effective strategies, including:

Physical therapy to reduce nerve pressure and improve strength
Anti-inflammatory medications or corticosteroids
Cervical traction to relieve compression
Epidural steroid injections for targeted pain relief
Ergonomic and posture coaching to avoid flare-ups

Our multidisciplinary approach ensures that your care is coordinated and efficient—from your first appointment through recovery.
