    What is the treatment for a pinched nerve?

    Dr. ANUVITHA KAMATH

    The treatment for a pinched nerve is to rest, relieve any physical stress and reduce motion in the affected area. Immobilization of the affected area is required. Depending on the site and severity of symptoms, a splint or brace may be advised. Physiotherapy plays a major role in treating the pinched nerve, as it relieves pain, and tension in the nerve and gives more strength to the nerves and the muscles which are affected. Other treatment options are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen or naproxen. Nerve-related pain can also be reduced by drugs like gabapentin or amitryptiline. Steroid drugs can also be given either orally or in injectables. If the symptoms don't subside with the medications, then it might require surgery.

    What is a pinched nerve?
