Are There Any Side Effects Of Taking Cyclobenzaprine And Oxycodone-acetaminophen?

I am 30 years who is 5 -11 and 200 lbs. I have no medical history. Over the weekend I had a muscle spasm in my left shoulder near my spine. It made a pain shoot all the way down to my pinkie. I went to the hospital and they gave me cyclobenzaprine & oxycodone-acetaminophen. After taking the meds I felt better but now my index finger on my left hand feels like its asleep and my left elbow feels like i hit my funny bone constantly. Is this caused by the spasm or the meds?

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms could be related to a bulging disc in the cervical vertebral column or a pinched nerve. This is not an adverse effect of the drug you used. I recommend consulting with a neurologist for a physical exam for a physical exam and some tests: a cervical spine X-ray study, nerve conduction studies.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
