Turns out I have a disc bulge between two of my cervicals and it’s pinching a nerve, which is very very painful and weakening my arm and finger sensitivity.

I’m not here asking for advice, rather to get an idea of what’s down the road for me depending on the type of treatment I’ll end up following. I am seeing a doctor, I have an appointment tomorrow. I also had a CT scan done.

So basically if you’ve had something similar anywhere on your spine I’d appreciate to know about it. Did you recover fully? How long did it take? What treatment did you follow? Did you complement it with anything such as specialized exercises, acupuncture, massage or else?

    Woah… I’ve caught myself sitting like that unconsciously for years and kept thinking it was bad lol… That position is my go to on bad days. Never thought about it actually putting things into a good state.

    Excellent.
