Do I have a pinched nerve
My left side feels tingling (leg, arm)and sometimes my toes feel numb. It feels like something in my upper back back is pinched. its been like this for 3-4 yes but my doctor hasnt done an MRI on my back only tells me to use heating pads which makes it worse
Is that 3 to 4 years? Wow, long time if that is the case. Does stretching help? I ask that because I have had sciatica which is relieved by stretching. Is the tingling all the time or just when you are in certain positions?
I like heating pads, ice and stretching. Massage too. And exercise regularly.
But if your doctor does not give you appropriate care, ask to see another one. Maybe even bump up to a neurologist who specializes in nerves. Let us know how you are doing!

Hello. Yes 3-4 years. Stretching doesn't help or cold/ heating pads. I'm trying to find a new doctor. The tingling is all the time and its uncomfortable :(
