If you’re experiencing sharp neck pain that radiates into your arm or fingers, you might be dealing with cervical radiculopathy. This condition occurs when a nerve in your neck is irritated or compressed, causing pain, numbness, or weakness along the nerve’s pathway.

At Cure Space, we’re dedicated to helping patients understand and manage cervical radiculopathy so they can return to pain-free living.

Tips


What Causes Cervical Radiculopathy?


Cervical radiculopathy often arises from issues such as:


  • Herniated discs pressing on nerve roots

  • Degenerative changes like bone spurs

  • Injury or inflammation in the neck region


These factors can narrow the space through which nerves exit the spine, leading to irritation.
