(Medical-NewsWire.com, March 23, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- Pinched nerve or cervical radiculopathy affects 51.03% of Americans aged between 45 to 64. More than half of those affected are women. If not treated properly, a simple pinched nerve could lead to a surgery that could cost up to $200,000. At the onset of the condition, patients are recommended to use cervical traction devices for spine and neck decompression.
To relieve these symptoms, experts suggest that patients use non-surgical decompression systems or take pain medications. "Neck Solutions" website recommends the use of neck brace or cervical traction device or collar to minimize the swelling and decrease muscle cramps. In addition, wearing cervical traction devices provides warmth, and decompresses the spine. Improving overall posture would lead to a better condition.
Syrtenty® has two neck traction devices to relieve the symptoms of pinched nerves. Its rubber and soft neck traction collars both decompress the spine and relax the muscles, discs, and nerves. The soft neck traction device could also serve as neck pillow. Syrtenty® neck traction devices are durable, portable, long-lasting, and easy to use.
According to MedicineNet.com, cervical radiculopathy comes from the root words "radix" meaning "root," referring to the root nerve, and "neuropathy," which is a condition wherein the nerves are not functioning properly. A pinched nerve results to pain, numbness, weakness, and inability to control certain muscles. Pinched nerves in the spine results to pain in the neck, shoulder, arms, and even on the fingers.
Pinched nerve has two main causes. As aforementioned, it could be caused by herniated discs. The discs of the spine serve as shock absorbers of the pressure put on the vertebrae. Too much pressure from strenuous activities or accidents, such as a whiplash injury, could result to bulging discs and pinched nerves.
On the other hand, cervical radiculopathy could be caused by degeneration and bone spurs. According to the University of Maryland Medical Center's website, "the degenerative disc disease can cause bone spurs to form around the nerve roots." These spurs then rub on and irritate the nerve root, leading to pain, numbness, and weakness of the muscles that the nerves supply.
