Identifying and Treating a Pinched Nerve in the Neck
4. When to be Concerned
A few warning signs and symptoms that develop from a pinched nerve can indicate a more serious issue. If a person is unable to move their neck or arm, or if the pain comes with confusion, a high fever, or nausea, they should seek medical attention.
If the pinched nerve was caused by an impact, like a fall or car accident, it's worth it to go to the hospital and make sure there wasn't a more serious injury.
