Doctor: Hello ,Thank you for writing to HCM,Brief answer -A pinched nerve occurs when there is "compression" (pressure) on a nerve.Explained answer -Nerves extend from your brain and spinal cord, sending important messages throughout your body. If you have a pinched nerve (nerve compression) your body may send you warning signals such as pain. Don't ignore these warning signals.Damage from a pinched nerve may be minor or severe. It may cause temporary or long-lasting problems. The earlier you get a diagnosis and treatment for nerve compression, the more quickly you'll find relief.In some cases, you can't reverse the damage from a pinched nerve. But treatment usually relieves pain and other symptoms.Hope You will find it out helpful.Thanks And Regards,Dr. Gaurav Prajapati
