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.
Treatment options for a pinched nerve include: 1  Rest. Your doctor will likely recommend that you rest your neck until your symptoms improve. 2  Medication. Anti-inflammatory drugs or other medications can help relieve the pain of a pinched nerve. 3  Physical therapy.
