How Can A Pinched Nerve On The Back Be Treated?
Hello I have had a pinch nerve in my back that runs all the way down to my heel for about 2 weeks. Ive been to the chiropractor twice and it seems to help for about an hour and then its back. I have cyclobenzaprine 10mg from the last time I through my back out - would that help?

Hello,
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persists better to consult a neurologist and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
