รู้ทัน  ปวดคอแบบไหน อาจเป็นสัญญาณเตือน โรคหมอนรองกระดูกทับเส้นประสาท

Many people often think that neck pain is caused by “office syndrome”, but in reality, improper use of the spine can lead to more serious consequences, such as herniated disc pressing on nerves, a common disorder that often requires surgical treatment. Therefore, if you are experiencing this type of neck pain, it may be a warning sign of “herniated disc pressing on nerves”. You should see a doctor before it gets worse!

<li>Experiencing electric shock-like pain from the shoulder to the neck, radiating down the arm, or numbness and weakness in the hands and arms, unable to control hand movements</li>
<li>Neck pain, back pain that comes and goes for more than 2-4 weeks</li>
<li>Numbness and tingling around the base of the neck, neck stiffness making it difficult to turn</li>
<li>Feeling deep pain when coughing, sneezing, or straining due to pressure in the spinal cord</li>

<h2>Detect Herniated Disc Pressing on Nerves Early with This Examination</h2>
Diagnosis of herniated disc pressing on nerves is done using MRI or CT Scan to assess severity and determine treatment options. Patients with mild symptoms may be advised to take medication and undergo physical therapy, but those with more severe symptoms may be recommended for surgery.
<h2>How to Treat Neck Pain from Herniated Disc Pressing on Nerves?</h2>
<ul>
<li>Medication Treatment</li>
</ul>
Doctors will prescribe pain relief medication according to the severity of symptoms, and sometimes steroid or anesthetic injections near the nerve roots located at the spine, or injections into the neck muscles to help relieve pain and speed up recovery from neck pain.

<li>Physical Therapy</li>
</ul>
Helps widen the space between the cervical vertebrae, reducing nerve compression, aiding in stretching muscles, tendons, and muscle spasms. Proper massage can also help relieve neck pain.

<li>Surgery</li>
</ul>
In some cases, surgery may be necessary to relieve pressure on nerve roots or the spinal cord. Surgery is usually reserved for chronic neck pain, spinal nerve compression, or when absolutely necessary.

Neck pain may not just be office syndrome but could also indicate a risk of a herniated disc pressing on a nerve, a condition that requires urgent treatment before it worsens and leads to surgery.
