Nerve Entrapments

Numbness, tingling, weakness, burning, or radiating discomfort can sometimes involve irritation or compression of a peripheral nerve. Similar symptoms can also come from the spine or other medical conditions, so localization matters.

What CNC may evaluate

  • Distribution of symptoms
  • Strength, reflex, and sensory findings
  • Provocative movement or position findings
  • Peripheral nerve and spinal considerations
  • Need for electrodiagnostic or other medical evaluation

How care is approached

Management depends on the suspected source and severity of the problem. CNC may use chiropractic, neurological, movement, manual-traction, or supportive approaches when appropriate and may refer for imaging, electrodiagnostics, or specialty care when indicated.

Information only: This page provides general educational information. It is not a diagnosis, does not establish that CNC is appropriate for every person with this condition, and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice or emergency care.
