What Is Cervical Radiculopathy?

Cervical radiculopathy is caused by compression or irritation of a nerve root in the cervical spine (neck). This nerve pressure can lead to:

Sharp or burning pain in the neck, shoulder, arm, or hand
Numbness or pins-and-needles sensations
Muscle weakness or reduced grip strength
Discomfort that worsens with certain neck movements

Common Causes:

Herniated or bulging cervical discs
Cervical spinal stenosis
Bone spurs from arthritis
Degenerative disc disease
Sports injuries, repetitive strain, or trauma

At NYSI White Plains, early diagnosis and targeted treatment can help relieve pain, protect nerve function, and avoid long-term complications.

Diagnosing a Pinched Nerve in White Plains

We begin with a detailed physical and neurological examination to evaluate range of motion, reflexes, sensation, and strength. To confirm the diagnosis and understand the underlying cause, we may recommend:

X-rays to assess cervical disc space and spinal alignment
MRI for high-resolution views of disc and nerve structures
CT scan or EMG for more complex or multi-level cases

All imaging services are available on-site for your convenience—ensuring a fast, coordinated diagnosis.

Conservative Treatments for Cervical Radiculopathy

In most cases, cervical radiculopathy improves with non-surgical treatment. At NYSI White Plains, we offer:

Physical therapy for posture correction, mobility, and strength
Anti-inflammatory medications or oral steroids
Cervical traction to reduce pressure on the nerve
Epidural steroid injections for targeted pain relief
Ergonomic and lifestyle guidance to prevent recurrence

Our goal is to relieve symptoms while helping you return to work, family life, and daily activity—with minimal disruption.

When Surgery Is the Right Next Step

If nerve compression causes severe symptoms or doesn’t improve with conservative care, surgical treatment may be necessary. Our board-certified spine surgeons in Westchester specialize in minimally invasive procedures that relieve pressure while preserving neck mobility.

Surgical Options Include:

Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)
Cervical foraminotomy
Artificial disc replacement

Each approach is tailored to your spine’s anatomy, symptoms, and lifestyle goals. Our team will explain the benefits, risks, and recovery process in clear and compassionate terms.
