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.
The best you can do when you have a pinched nerve is to address the muscles, tendons, and ligaments surrounding the distressed area. In most cases, the cause is that the surrounding tissue has become inflamed and stressed from some injury. The main treatment options are physical therapy, massage or even medication. When treating a pinched nerve, it is important to locate and isolate the source, as it can occur in any area of the body. For example, a herniated disk can cause sciatica pain to run down the back of the leg.
