Symptoms may include pain that affects the area around the nerve, weakness, numbness and a tingling sensation. Areas of the body that are commonly affected by pinched nerves include the wrist, elbow, neck, back, and ankle. Nerves tend to heal slowly. The nerves heal from the top down, and depending on how much damage is done at the time the nerve becomes impinged (pinched), it may take weeks to months for the nerve to fully to heal. Treatment of neural impingement is directed at relieving the pain and then allowing the nerve to heal on its own.
Treating the Pinched Nerve at Home. 1  1. Follow PRICE protocol. PRICE stands for protection, rest, immobilization, compression and elevation. 2  2. Massage the pinched nerve. A gentle massage with warm oil will be beneficial in relaxing a pinched nerve. 3  3. Do a piriformis stretch. This exercise works out and stretches the hip muscles and the muscles in the lower back, therefore relieving rigidity and pressure to the hip. Sit in a chair with the feet flat on the floor. If the hip pain is on the left side, place your left ankle on top of your right knee.
